Latest CTC appointments Richard George and Ian Warby

Ian Warby, of Aston Hill fame, has been appointed by CTC as its new
Senior Cycling Development Officer responsible for off-road issues. He’ll be working on a range of projects including the development of CTC’s mountain bike training courses.

CTC Off-Road Development Manager, Rob Fuller said: “During his time at Aston Hill, Ian developed the site from scratch and developed training courses that have brought thousands of new riders into the sport. It’s exactly this type of experience that will enable CTC to cater for current and future mountain bikers.”

Ian Warby said: “I’m excited about being able to use my skills at a national level to enable CTC to truly represent the mountain bike community.”

CTC has also made permanent the appointment of Off-Road Campaigner Richard George. He has been spearheading CTC’s successful campaign to confirm cyclists’ ability to claim Rights of Way, and will be campaigning for a widespread review of Access and Rights of Way law in England and Wales.

Richard George said: “The campaign for improved rights for off-road cyclists has shown that mountain bikers can be a political force to be reckoned with. The challenge now is to build on that success – and over the coming months CTC will be pushing hard to see Access law brought up to date.”
