Illawarra Cycle Club - Home of Cycle Racing in the Illawarra
The Club is for participants for all levels. There is no need to be Robbie McEwen or Cadel Evans on the first day you come out to the Club. We have 4 Grades ranging from those that are there to compete and attain the highest level in the sport, to those that are out for some fitness and enjoy the social aspect of the day.
So if you have a bike, enjoy riding it, enjoy talking to people, and perhaps would like to try a little competition in a friendly environment, come along and join in the fun. Illawarra Cycle Club is proudly supported by Frank Soto & Associates 2 Day Tour - 11 & 12th July 2009 The 2 Day tour due to be run on 11th & 12th July 2009 has been cancelled due to the lack of volunteers to undertake the marshalling duties that would be required to run the event. To those that have volunterred, the Club thanks you for supporting the club and the event. In place of the 2 Day tour, a scratch race will be held on Saturday 11th July. Racing will commence @ 1pm. Any entry for the 2 Day Tour will be removed and therefore you will be required to re-enter.
2009 Goulburn Junior Tour Eleven ICC Juniors from U11 to U17 participated in the Goulburn Junior Tour over the weekend 30-31 May 2009. The fresh biting breeze, cold temperature and occasional brief rain shower did not dampen the event, but made conditions tough, especially for the two time trial stages. Ken Dinnerville Memorial Race 2009 Ken Dinnerville Programme The 24th of May will see the 52nd running of the Ken Dinnerville Memorial Race in honor of a former Illawarra Cyclist. This event will cover a distance of just under 90km on the roads of West Dapto. Not a participant but like cycling? Come out and watch the event from various locations along the course and see the spectacle that is high level road cycling in the Illawarra. You can view the recent history of the event including past winners within the history section of our site. Directions to Start of Ken Dinnerville 2009 Ride of Silence - Ben Mikic Foundation This year the Ride of Silence will be run as a bunch ride starting at Bowral Swimming Pool and finishing at the Corbett Plaza coffee shops. Riders should start gathering at the Pool at 7.30 am and the ride will commence at 8.00 am. The route will be the same as last year i.e. along Bong Bong Street, Moss Vale Road, turning right at the Illawarra Highway and Argyle Street roundabout in Moss Vale; thence along Suttor Road back onto Moss Vale Road, finishing at Corbett Plaza in Bowral; and for those not up to speed with normal bunch riding the pace will be relatively slow. It should be noted that riders taking part in this event do so at their own risk. Eric 'Young Gun' Haakonssen Reports from USA I have been enjoying some great public and collegiate racing over the last couple of weeks. We have had some really hard courses and big climbs. Here is my latest race report for April 11 and 12. Bridget Mullany Wins State Crown BRIDGET Mullany has only been cycling for 15 months and in that time she has already developed into a State champion. At Dubbo earlier this month Mullany took out the under 13s NSW Girls Scratch Race Track Cycling title and also gained a bronze medal in the sprint championship. It has been a successful start to the 11-year-old's career. Bike Fit Calculator Are you a new member to the Illawarra Cycle Club or new to cycling?

All the members of the Club will welcome new riders and assist new members with various aspects of racing whether it be on the Velodrome at Unanderra or out on the Road course at West Dapto (Avondale Rd). Several riders have ridden at international level and have much advice and experience to pass on to those aspiring to dothe same and to those that want to be able to ride better at Club level.
The Illawarra Cycle Club can now look like a team off the bike with the arrival of the Club Polo Shirts. These shirts show off the new Clob Logo on the back as well as the Clubs past logo, the "Wheels with Wings" which is orginal logo from 1962. This has been reproduced in the Clasic Style.
