Road & Crits
ICC is one of the most active and successful clubs in the Eastern Region. We cater for all whether you're looking to ride your first crit race or are a seasoned road racer. Our racers compete weekly at Hog Hill, Lee Valley, Hillingdon, and Gravesend and can be seen in road races across the Eastern and Central regions. ICC also host our own men’s and women’s road races and a crit racing event annually.
Time Trials
ICC time-triallers have had success competing across all UK standard distances in men’s and women’s events. We also have veterans’ and juniors’ competitors and racers travel across the UK to compete. ICC host an Open Time-Trial once a year and run our own club time trials 4 times a year.
Track
ICC members race in the summer and winter leagues at Herne Hill and Lee Valley. We also host club member only sessions at Lee Valley Velodrome to introduce new members to the track and give experienced members to go head to head informally.
Cyclocross
A growing contingent of ICC members are racing cross, not only throughout the regular CX season but even in the warmer months. One of the easiest disciplines to begin racing in, plus plenty of locations not too far from central London.
Hill Climb
As well as traditional time-trialling ICC racers annually compete in the esoteric British sufferfest which is Hill-Climb season. Our racers can be seen at many of the southern events including Bison Hill, Catford and Bec, Urban Hill Climb and Ditchling with some riders also travelling further-a-field.
Ultra Endurance
ICC has had a number of finishers in the infamous Transcontinental Race as well as other ultra-distance races including The Transatlantic Way, GB Duro, TransPyrenees and Race Across America. We also have a strong Audax community for those who prefer the more casual silly distance ride with riders completing Paris-Brest-Paris, London-Edinburgh-London as well as annual attendees at many of the standard distance randonées leading up to these.
Virtual
There's a growing ICC Zwift racing group, competing as a club team with across multiple categories.
