Wheelhub.co.uk is a dedicated site for cyclists to compare prices for bikes and cycle parts.
We thought it was about time cyclists had one of their own instead of having to use sites that also compare washing machines etc.!

We'll also be having a Free buy and sell section soon.
At the moment its difficult to know where to advertise spare parts / bikes as there are so many forums and clubs.
Hopefully we can make it a central place that works better for everyone.

We are an on-line physiotherapy practice (PhysioBench) enabling people to self manage their injury with expert physio guidance.

I feel that Physiobench would fit perfectly with your website. As well as offering personalised rehab programmes we have lots of free advice on site. At the moment articles that would be of interest to your club members include: healing an injury with ice; basic bike set up- 5 tips on how to set up your bike so as to avoid injury; cyclists hand – handlebar palsy; cyclists hand – carpal tunnel syndrome; and 10 good reasons to get on your bike. New articles are added regularly.

We have an extensive team of Chartered Physios all of whom are specialists in their fields. One of our team is Alison Whiteley. Alison has worked as physio with British Cycling including accompanying them to two Olympic Games.

I have already added a link to your site from our cycling injuries page.

A few of the older club members will remember "big Muddie" + his down and out trikes.
I have just received news via  Malcolm Howell / John Tomlinson that sadly he succumbed to cancer about four days ago in Sheffield.

Hello,
As a fellow cycling enthusiast/racer and member of the Warwickshire Roads Club, I tried to source a copy of this title as I had heard what a great read it was.
To my astonishment, I realised they were not available anymore, and if you could find a copy on the internet, the prices were extortionate.
Consequently after re-publishing the Beryl Burton book "Personal Best" we (Mercian Manuals Ltd) investigated with Eileen the possibility of re-issuing her book "Wonder Wheels" originally published in 1956.
We are pleased to say that Eileen is happy for us to do this and this title is now available again.
Please find attached the details and price and where to buy from etc here:

Hi,
As you may have seen in the local papers, the Greyhound Inn at Grizebeck has been taken over by the local community to prevent its closure.

At the moment it is staffed almost entirely by volunteers, but we are starting to take on staff and offer employment locally. We are already offering a good selection of real ales and will develop the menu as soon as practicable. (At the moment it consists of pub food such as steak and ale pie, Cumberland sausage, gammon etc)

One of our aims is to attract walkers and cyclists. We have started monthly walks from the pub, with coffee and pastries beforehand and bacon baps etc afterwards. We hope soon to be open all day at the weekend and offer good quality tea and coffee and cakes, scones etc. The Broughton cyclists have already been in and arranged a lunch one Sunday after their ride. Black Combe Runners are using it as a base for evening runs.

We would love to see more cyclists using the Greyhound. It is an ideal place for riders from Ulverston and Barrow to meet before setting off up Woodland, the Duddon, Eskdale etc.

The Greyhound is also the finish of the Greyhound Challenge sponsored bike ride (£2000 last year for North West Air Ambulance) from Shap.

We really want to keep the Greyhound open, and your support will help. You can contact me on 01229 889400 or on 07801 350179 if you want to find out more or arrange for a group of you to call for lunch or afternoon tea. I hope we will see some of you here.

I am the studio coordinator at Dalton Leisure Centre.

We have just had a purpose built cycle studio built, with the latest bikes from Startrac. The studio is fully air-conditioned.

We have 6 fully trained spinning instructors to take our participants through an outdoor cycle ride inside.

The Spinning programme is second to none, designed by a road cyclist, it provides an effective winter training programme for the competitive road cyclist (using heart rate monitors if desired).

To achieve the best fitness results and on going training come and try it with us. Its not aerobics on a bike, this is the real Mc Coy.

If you want more info on the spinning programme log on to www.spinning.com.

If you have questions about Dalton Leisure Centre and our spinning classes please contact Sharon 01229 476360/463125.

Thanks for your time, Sharon.
