Welcome to the Crawley Wheelers Website.Crawley Wheelers is open to cyclists of all abilities - in Sussex , Surrey and surrounding areas, from beginners to leisure and racing cyclists. We hope you find this site useful and if you require further information or are thinking about joining our club, please do not hesitate to contact us or click HERE to Join Online.  Social RidesCrawley Wheelers are running a series of social rides aimed at anyone that wants to ride with other like minded people. The rides will be suitable for any type of bike although we request that you do wear a helmet. The rides will be around two to two and a half hours in duration and the speed will be set according to the capabilities of the riders. At present we are unable to accept under 18s who are not accompanied by an adult. The rides will leave from Virgin Health Club on Crawley Leisure Park at 10:30. We hope to run the rides every Saturday from 18 April through to the end of September. Please contact Mark Penfold on

for more information or to register an interest Order Your Club Clothing OnlineIt's not too late ... Peggy is about to put in another order to ImpSport for Crawley Wheelers' club clothing. You can now place your orders online by Clicking Here She will be ordering some extra stock of the popular items - but these usually sell out quickly so it's best to get your order in quickly because there's a six week delivery lead time . CongratulationsNigel Langridge set a new personal best in the club 25 on the 29th of March, going under the hour for the first time with 59.51 on a very cold morning. Rupert Robinson also joined the 59 minute club a week later taking a massive 2.50 off his previous best time when recording 59.06 in the Redmon CC event. Congratulations from the Wheelers to you both. ... And Yet More Additions to the Website!Our new website is turning heads and getting lots of hits! New members can now join the club online! And we also now have a Club Shop - so you can order CW kit and you will shortly be able to pay your Subs online. For those interested, the website uses Quikstore e-Commerce software, (BTW, if you need e-Commerce functionality for your own company's website, this is a great product - at a really affordable price - see Quikstore.com for more info). By registering online for a Member Login, members can have access to the Forum and contribute blogs, links and images. In the members' section we have also now implemented a Live Chat Room. It's nice to see the new Forum is getting a great deal of use, too. If you would like to contribute something to the site or use the Forum, just click on the Register link under the CW Members Login heading and create a user login and password for yourself. I had to remove the open registration page because it just gets hacked by all and sundry. So now all new registrations have to be approved by one of the site "Moderators". It's quick and quite painless! Dick Crane Club Runs.Mark Penfold has updated the club runs list. Club runs start at 09:30, from Virgin Health Club, Crawley Leisure Park. Check out the runs list HERE.
