Club announcement: we are delighted to share that the Cycling Time Trials National 25 Mile Time Trial will be held jointly by Didcot Phoenix CC and Oxonian CC in 2027.

Didcot Phoenix has been running time trials since 1973, and co-hosted the CTT National Hill Climb in 2020, marking this as the second major national event this decade!

It will be a special year for Oxonian CC who will be celebrating their centenary in 2027, having been founded in 1927 and who have organised time trials since 1928!

The event will coincide with the return of the Tour de France to British soil, and the first visit of the Tour de France Femmes; a true celebration of cycling.

Details are being finalised between the two committees and we will be on the lookout for volunteers as we approach the event.

We'd like to thank Kate Bradley of the DPCC committee, the involved members of Oxonian CC and its committee, and Jim Parke of London West

It is with great sadness that we bring you news that Robert Briggs passed away last weekend.

“Briggo” was an amazing TT rider and was a key member of the Didcot Phoenix committee, serving as Treasurer and TT secretary for many years. He will be sorely missed by those who knew him.

The deepest condolences of the committee and the club as a whole go out to his friends, his family, and to his wife Suzanne.
