About British Cycling

British Cycling is linked to our purpose of bringing the joy of cycling to everyone. The organisation has recently embarked on an exciting new journey. We have a modernised commercial and events offering grounded in social impact and storytelling, harnessing the spotlight and inspiration from athletes’ performance on the world stage and our growing portfolio of major events. We represent a community of more than 140,000 loyal members and the 27 million who ride a bike nationwide, whether they’re racing, riding for fun, getting from A to B or competing for medals with the Great Britain Cycling Team.

In 2027 the UK will host the Grand Depart of both the Tour de France and the Tour de France Femme, Avec Zwift. This will be the first time in history that both races have departed from the same country, outside of France. A landmark social impact programme will also be delivered across the UK, tackling inactivity, improving mental wellbeing, boosting economic growth and supporting communities to thrive.

A Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) – Grand Depart GB 2027 – will maintain oversight of the delivery of the events and will manage public funding on behalf of DCMS, Scottish Government, Welsh Government and UK Sport. The SPV is a Joint Venture between UKEL (a new sports events company) and British Cycling. British Cycling will deliver the operational and business function, social impact and volunteer programmes along with all consumer facing functions, on behalf of partners.
