Competitive cycling is not just an activity for younger riders.

The West Coast Masters Cycling Council organises a huge range of events for male cyclists over 35 and female cyclists over 30. Many of these races are graded so that different age groups can compete against one another.

A well-organised event calendar is available for riders, who due to a variety of circumstances, are unable to propel themselves using leg power, and instead must rely upon their upper body to generate momentum.

At the higher levels, this form of racing is extremely competitive.

Cycling makes up one third of this rapidly growing sport and it enjoys considerable cross-over with traditional road cycling.
