“Today everything fell into place. I feel like I’ve finally reached my top form these last few weeks. It is an amazing feeling to win my first race with the elite women. I had hoped for good results this season, of course, but to be given the opportunity to sprint and finish the job is incredible. 
“I am privileged to be part of this team. They have given me fantastic support, with tough training and coaching. And they have always been there for me and always believed in me, so it’s nice that they trust me and give me the chance to go for the win at such a young age.

Women’s Cycling Podcast 2013, episode 13

Our latest podcast!  Here’s how Dan describes it

Hello sinners! Welcome aboard for a slightly unusual week of podcasting fun and adventure. This week Sarah baits Dan mercilessly with accusations of Queenslandishness, we’ll leave it to you to decide if he doth protest too much. We also do a quick whip around the racing all over the world (there’s quite a bit of it). Dan gets excited about research reports (and possibly owes Daniel Benson an apology). There’s a bunch of other stuff, including a fair bit of laughing and a whole lot of swearing, so grab a beer, settle in and get ready to press play! (1:02:23 MIN / 59.88 MB)

"The more feminine I appeared, the more attention – almost universally negative – I attracted. I wondered if it was just me. So I wrote a blogpost on the subject and was overwhelmed by the number of women – and men – who came forward to share their experiences online with me."

CTC is the cycling organisation with the largest percentage of women members at 25 per cent and many CTC member groups already do great work encouraging women to ride – for example, the inspirational Fabulous Ladies of Chester – and our staff run inspirational activities for women cyclists across the UK.

So although it’s the very first time that CTC is sponsoring a women’s racing team in our 134 years as a national cycling organisation, the move clearly links up with our work past and present. With the invaluable support of our co-sponsors, we decided to launch Team CTC to highlight this work.
