Membership

Rides with The Chester Fabulous Ladies are free.

The Chester Fabulous Ladies cycling club is part of Chester CTC, which is in turn part of a regional group of Chester and North Wales CTC




The CTC (Cyclist's Touring Club) was the old name for the re-branded Cycling UK, which is the UK’s national cyclists’ organisation.



CTC has a long and illustrious history of working for travelling, recreational and utility cycle users. Founded in 1878 as the Bicycle Touring Club and subsequently re-named the Cyclists' Touring Club, and in 2016 was re-named Cycling UK.

Today Cycling UK has around 68,000 members encompassing all ages and types of cyclists with elected representation at national and local level backed by a professional staff.
