Talk: A Hundred Years and More of Cycle Clubs in Newbury

Newbury Road Club will be celebrating its centenary in 2025, but cycle clubs have been busy in Newbury for many more years. This talk will give a short history of cycling clubs in Newbury with particular emphasis on the Newbury Road Club from its formation by the Bance brothers to the active and busy club it is today.
Dr David Portwood has been a club cyclist for nearly fifty years and a member of Newbury Road Club for over thirty. The last few years Dave has been researching the history of cycle clubs in Newbury as part of the centenary celebrations of the club in 2025.
Bookings close at 4pm the day before the talk.
