Coalville Wheelers Cycling Club
Cycling!
Welcome to the web based home of Coalville Wheelers Cycling Club.
The Coalville Wheelers is a Coalville based cycling club with 80 years of history in all types of cycling.
| We are a friendly club and we welcome anyone who wants to get involved in cycling for training, racing, sportives or simply for the joy of riding. You can find out about our club runs, time trial and road racing events by browsing the site or by contacting us here.Although we have a strong racing presence in local time trial races the club’s heart is both our clubhouse in Griffydam and the training and club runs which leave as follows:
Saturdays: Queen’s Head pub in Heather at 09.00. Sundays: Clubhouse at 9:00 during the summer (BST) and 09:30 during the winter. The Saturday runs are a faster pace and not suited for beginners. However the Sunday runs are catered to run at the slowest riders pace and depending on the size and ability of the group may be split into 2 groups.Most clubruns call in at a local cafe for refreshments. |
 CWCC Clubhouse Location – LE67 8HU |
Club night at Griffydam is every Wednesday starting at 7pm April to August or 8pm September to March.

LCXL Rd 2 - Misterton. Helpers Needed.
Sunday 1st Oct is Rd 2 of the LCXL League. This event is being run by the LCXL rather than a specific club. Assistance is therefore being asked from member clubs within LCXL.
If you are able to help on the day in any capacity, particularly if you are going to ride the event anyway please get in touch with me, or post on the LCXL Facebook page.
Help is required for signing-on, marshalling, line judging, course dismantling, etc. Even if you can only provide assistance for part of the day that will help to ensure the LCXL grows for the good of cycling in Leicestershire.
