Cradle Coast Cycling Club

Cradle Coast Cycling Club is a Tasmanian cycling club representing riders from the Cradle Coast and North-West Tasmania, with a strong connection to road racing and Tasmania's wider competitive cycling community. The club caters for riders who enjoy training, racing and representing the region at events around Tasmania and interstate. North-West Tasmania provides an exceptional backdrop for road cycling, with a mixture of coastal roads, rolling agricultural country and challenging climbs. Cradle Coast riders have traditionally been part of Tasmania's strong interclub racing culture, travelling to events organised by clubs throughout the state and competing across graded road races, criteriums, time trials and championship events. The club remains represented in contemporary Tasmanian road competition. Recent race entries show Cradle Coast Cycling Club riders competing alongside riders from Launceston, Hobart, Burnie and other Tasmanian clubs, reflecting the interconnected nature of the state's road-racing community. Cradle Coast riders have also competed at Australian Masters Road National Championship level. At the 2023 Masters and Junior Road National Championships, club rider Kristy Grubits represented Cradle Coast Cycling Club across the individual time trial, criterium and road-race program, finishing fourth in the Women's Masters 2 individual time trial. The club has a history of success in Masters racing more broadly. Cycling Australia's national reporting recorded Cradle Coast Cycling Club taking third in the Men's Masters 180 Club Team Time Trial at the 2020 National Road Championships, demonstrating the club's involvement beyond Tasmania's local racing calendar. Interestingly, riders registered with Cradle Coast Cycling Club have also appeared in national-level mountain bike competition. Recent AusCycling downhill start lists include Cradle Coast Cycling Club riders in Elite and Expert categories. That said, I'd treat this as individual members crossing disciplines rather than positioning the club itself as an MTB club, particularly because Cradle Coast Mountain Bike Club exists as a separate dedicated organisation. Like many regional cycling clubs, Cradle Coast provides an important connection between local riders and the wider Tasmanian racing scene. Club affiliation gives riders a community to represent while competing at interclub, state and national events and helps maintain the long tradition of competitive cycling across Tasmania's North-West. Whether you're looking to connect with other road cyclists on the Cradle Coast, get involved in Tasmanian racing or represent a North-West club at events around the state and beyond, Cradle Coast Cycling Club provides a connection to the competitive cycling community of North-West Tasmania.
