The strategy, which has been crafted with input from diverse cycling communities across Wales, emphasises our dedication to inclusivity, excellence, and the celebration of our vibrant cycling culture.
“Welsh Cycling’s new strategy represents a collaborative effort that truly captures the aspirations, challenges, and opportunities of our cycling communities,” said Caroline Spanton, CEO of Welsh Cycling. “We have listened and understood, and this strategy provides the crucial background needed to shape the future of our incredible sport in Wales. We are excited to introduce a fresh, dynamic approach that symbolises our forward-thinking vision.”
The new strategy is designed to connect diverse communities through a shared passion for cycling and the pride we have in our beautiful country. From breathtaking mountain views to serene coastal paths, Wales offers unique experiences for every rider.
Key Highlights of the New Strategy Include:
- Connecting and elevating all cycling experiences across Wales, ensuring that every cyclist feels part of a supportive and enthusiastic community.
- Providing inclusive and accessible cycling opportunities that instil a lifelong love for cycling in young people across Wales.
- Doubling the number of females involved in the sport across all areas.
- Creating robust and accessible pathways to nurture and support athletes and coaches, enabling them to achieve world-class success.
- Offering dedicated support for the individuals who make cycling in Wales possible, ensuring they feel valued and inspired.
- Modelling best-in-class governance to build trust and foster engagement, ensuring our organisation remains transparent and accountable.
The excitement continues with an in-person event on Saturday, July 27, at Newport Sports Village during our Olympic Farewell Festival. This event marks the beginning of our journey to make Wales a premier destination for cyclists and ensure that our nation is truly built for biking.
