Hi All, On Thursday 22nd May, the Halfords Tour Series comes to Oxford. I’m planning to be in St Giles by 6PM outside the Eagle and Child and will be cycling in from Abingdon. It would be great for a group to cycle out from Didcot, so if you are willing to lead a ride [...]
On Saturday, 6 members of Didcot Phoenix (Mick, Zoe, Dave, Pete, Alan and PhilB) took part in the WLCA 10 on the Witney by-pass. It was cold and a little blowy, but the rain largely stayed away. A gaggle of us got kitted up in the car park at the HQ and then wended our [...]
This Sunday sees the return of the Abingdon Freewheelers Cycling Festival, hosted in the Abingdon Market place. Didcot Phoenix will have a small stand with some bikes and the club run will be heading over for coffee and cakes on the Sunday club run. ——— update from the event ——– It was a great day [...]

Top Didcot rider was Ron Smith, finishing second with a time of 28:31, to Mark Cox of Fairly United. Results are now available on the Time [...]
To make the clubruns work it is vital that regulars commit to lead a ride in the upcoming months. Pick your favourite route/cafe-stop and let me know a date. I can then publish a Spring Schedule. Please also note the 0900 start time from this Sunday onwards. April will be a bit disrupted by the [...]
Hi All, If anyone would like to purchase some Club Kit, please contact our clothing officer by April 13th. Dave Rodger will be placing an order in the next few weeks, ready for kit to be available for the spring/summer season. We have some Endura samples available for sizing but you can also check Endura [...]
Due to the uncertain weather, a backup plan; if conditions aren’t to your liking to join the 0930 ride, make your own way to Benson for about 11:45. (If there’s snow I’ll probably go off-roading – might even get the spikes out!) ‘Official’ start is still 0930 at the Broadway, for the brave or if [...]
I believe this is their 3rd year; they always have a big turnout and good weather! Ab.Freewheeling have invited us to get involved again, perhaps with a stand advertising DPCC? I’ll be leading their ‘long’ ride. If anyone else fancies getting involved to promote DPCC, let me know. It’s a great opportunity to let local [...]
