Cycle Chesterfield

Cycle Chesterfield is a local cycling organisation that promotes, encourages and campaigns for safe, convenient cycling in the Chesterfield area. Established in the mid-1990s as Chesterfield Cycle Campaign, it has long worked to support cyclists and improve local facilities. Its activities combine practical information, community events and advocacy.

The organisation produces a cycle map of Chesterfield, shares route information and staffs stalls at local events. It also organises guided rides, member activities, cycling festivals, workshops and regular meetings to help more people enjoy cycling. Cycle Chesterfield represents cyclists to local authorities, responds to planning applications and builds public support for consultations.

Its infrastructure work includes auditing existing routes, identifying potential improvements and advocating for projects such as better connections around Chesterfield Waterside and the Avenue site. The group also encourages employers to pursue the Cycling UK Cycle Friendly Employers Award and helps residents report maintenance problems on cycle routes. People can join, attend events, follow its updates online or take part in campaigning to make cycling safer and more accessible locally
