The news in 2020 is that Interlinkx has been converted from a community interest company into a charitable incorporated organisation under the terms of the Charitable Incorporated Organisations (Conversion) Regulations. In the process of conversion, the organisation has changed its name to Cycling Club Hackney CIO. Meanwhile, the community amateur sports club called Cycling Club Hackney has been wound up and has gifted its assets to CC Hackney CiO

Interlinx CiC, was responsible for CC Hackney'sHQ/house and home as well as leading on fund raising

& community outreach. In 2017 was the ten year anniversary since founding in 2007. Our partner organisation

(CC Hackney) came into being later in the same year.

Concorde Saturday group 28th November

Interlinkx CiC sponsored riders were out checking the new Loop Road that links ways through QE Park. This makes an interesting circuit around the 2012 Olympic stadium that is soon to be West Ham United FCs new ground.
There were a few cars on the road and the three sets of traffic lights were more often than not Working in our favour.
Part of our training session was exercising standing starts for building leg power. But we actually did flying starts to day because of the head wind conditions riders were facing.

After training we headed back over to our regular cafe; Mapps in Hackney Wick for hot chocolate and toast.

We're in

Interlinkx CiC staff and members would like to thank Hackney Homes management for resolving our Gerda door 'lockout' situation at Fawcett Youth & Community Bike Club quickly - thank you!

Meanwhile other doors were opening in another part of East London: Two young Interlinkx CiC & CC Hackney members Ryan da Costa & Israel Oketade were rewarded for their commitment to cycle sport training at the Concorde Centre on Kingsmead Estate Hackney. They were invited to attend a session of the London Six day race at Lea Valley Velodrome. One day perhaps they could return as six day track riders?! Well anything is possible at their age, little steps...

...last Thursday's lockout

Apologies to members and guests for last Thursday's lockout; we were unable to open up because one of our Gerd a door locks had failed. We've had six years without a lock hitch, not that bad. We expect to have this situation rectified ahead of our next session date Thursday 12th November.
