Clocks go back this weekend 30th Oct!
Winter is coming… as someone once said in a HBO TV series… and it is, this Sunday. It’s that time of year again – so don’t forget this Sunday morning now will you? At 02:00 on the 30th October (early Sunday morning when you are fast asleep), the clocks will go back an hour! This […]
New President of Weaver Valley Cycling C...
Following our AGM, Dave Daynes is stepping down from his role as Club President after many years. As a club, we want to thank Dave for his time as President.This left us without a President of our club, which is a role that we’ve always had. It therefore seemed appropriate to propose that Ann Gregory […]

WVCC Guardian Cup Round 12 – 27/07/2022
Temp traffic lights on the A50 meant a slight alteration to the course, with the final ramp to the finish on top of the M6 bridge being universally disliked.. ah well as Boris would say “Dem’s de breaks” Kevin Davies missed the round which meant Richard Morgan closed the gap in the road bike challenge […]
WVCC Guardian Cup Round 11- 20/07/2022
10 solos and 1 tandem faced the timekeeper Anne Gregory for round 11 of our 10 mile TT series. 7 of these 10 set new personal best times and the other 3 were very close to their best times, so it really wasn’t a bad night despite the wind. Craig Lee grabbed top Guardian points […]

WVCC Guardian Cup Round 10 – 06/07/2022
Dreaded Traffic lights on Pennys Lane and Surface dressing at Mangoletsi’s forced us to use the 2 lap circuit for R10 of our 10 mile TT series. The slower course didn’t stop Sam Taylor from speeding round in 21:54, which I believe may be a course record. There was bit of movement in […]
WVCC Guardian Cup Round 9 – 29/06/2022
There’s been a bit of a shakeup in the overall tables after R9 of our club 10’s, [there was a typo or two in the RB &GC tables that are now corrected] a fair few riders now have 5 counting rides in. Sam Taylor was fastest on the night from Jeff Wood and Craig Lee. […]
Guardian Cup event cancellation 22/06/20...
Following this evening’s Club 10, we have taken the decision to cancel next week’s event. The reason for this is due to the end of the Royal Cheshire County Show, which will make the area very busy, especially along Penny’s Lane and the A50 in and out of Knutsford. Therefore, for practical and safety reasons, […]
WVCC Guardian Cup Round 4 – 25/05/2022
After 4 rounds things are starting to settle down, and with 10 rounds still to go, there is still time to start your campaign and snatch victory, remember the Guardian Cup [handicap] and the Scratch cup are won by the best 5 counting rounds, the Road Bike Challenge is a cumulative total. Stretching out an […]
WVCC Guardian Cup Round 3 – 18/05/2022
It’s tough at the top! Temp lights at the entrance of Shakely Mere carpark meant a switch to the 2 lap circuit and fortunately the promised rain didn’t materialise until the last rider had finished. Jeff Wood was the fastest on the night with 23:17 just 1 sec ahead of Matt Heath [who was giving […]
