Cambridge Cycling Club

What Cambridge Cycling Club does

Cambridge Cycling Club is a Cambridge, Ontario-based non-profit cycling organization founded in 2021 (originally as Cambridge Cycling Crûe) and registered as a full-membership affiliate club of the Ontario Cycling Association (OCA). The club serves recreational and competitive cyclists in the Cambridge region across all abilities and disciplines, delivering a scheduled ride program that includes Wednesday Night Road Rides, a monthly Friday City Rambler, Saturday Gravel Rides, and Sunday Morning Long Rides, with multiple ability groups (A/B/B+) per ride and dedicated no-drop options for less experienced riders. Its technology stack is built entirely on third-party platforms rather than proprietary software: Ride with GPS serves as the central route and event library with premium navigation features extended to members, Slack provides real-time ride cancellation and weather communications, Strava supports ride tracking and social engagement, and the CCN Bikes platform handles annual membership and event registration. Revenue is generated from annual membership fees routed through the OCA/CCN Bikes system, event registration fees, and a tiered local sponsorship program (Grand River Cycle as title sponsor, Velolaw.ca as platinum, Shaw Realty as silver, plus collision, portal, and accounting sponsors). Operations are volunteer-led, governed by an elected board, and supported by a documented policy stack including a Code of Conduct, Risk Management Plan, and Concussion Policy.
