Building on a landmark few years, this year’s conference will explore the theme of Growing Our Sport, as we look ahead to yet more exciting opportunities, notably around the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games and the 2027 Tour de France Grand Depart.
This won’t be all about major events though, as we’ll have sessions spanning the full pathway, from getting people onto bikes for the first time, to being an active member of your club, through to racing success.
Bringing together riders, clubs, coaches, event organisers, and all other volunteers from across the country, the conference will provide a platform to share knowledge, spark ideas, and shape the future of cycling in Scotland.
Book your place here.
Delegates will hear from leading voices in the sport and those who are delivering every single day. A mixture of engaging key notes and thought-provoking breakout sessions will hopefully provide you with the drive, knowledge and tools to continuing growing the sport we all love.
We are also delighted to announce that former World Champion and Olympic gold medallist, Chris Boardman, will deliver our closing keynote speech. As well as his success on a bike, Chris also has extensive experience across the sporting landscape, and is a strong advocate for active travel.
We look forward to hearing his thoughts on how we go about growing our sport.
The event will also be an opportunity to network and catch up with fellow members of the cycling community from all corners of Scotland, as well as input into our AGM, which will take place at lunchtime. In the evening we’ll celebrate 2025’s biggest success stories via our annual Awards – tickets for that event are on sale here.
