The CTC

Does anyone know the number of members over the last few years?
I hear that membership is declining which I find hard to believe given that the
number of cyclists has gone up year on year.

"Kevin is a lifelong cyclist who became CTC Director in 1998"

"Under Kevin's direction CTC has grown membership by over 20%"

Knowing Judith it's probably been leaked that membership dropped by
three this year or something. It would not be a surprise given the
state of the economy.

I've been a member for ten years, mainly for the insurance and have
persuaded many other cyclists to become members after they learned of how
they handled my compo claim.

The magazine can be useful as well.

No - I have only hit my head once in 80000 miles and that occasion was
not one of them.

Did that happen early on in your childhood?

Oh aye. In the 1960's we were always falling out of trees and coming a
cropper on park swings. You'd be carted away by social services if it
happened today and forced to wear a helmet before you could play out
on the roundabouts and slides.

It costs money to be a member, does it?

about thirty quid a head.
they have to pay their staff a million a year, someone has to pay for that,
they spend over million on 'trading costs' too, . 60,000 at 30 quid only
equals 1. 8 million and they have an expenditure of 6 million, the rest
comes from the lottery, so once again cyclists are sponging off the general
public.
