The Clyde Cycle Park (CCP) is an ambitious project that is creating a high-quality combination of cycle circuits (for skills training, road-race, cyclo-cross, BMX, cycle speedway) on the River Clyde in Cambuslang to promote community, commuter and competition cycling. Since we launched operation of the Park in early 2023, we have been running an active programme of courses and events for all sections of the community and for cycle clubs. Our success was recognised by Scottish Cycling with the 2023 Recreational Cycling Award!
