Well done to @itsloiskate taking the women’s win at the Andy Mallen Memorial hosted by GS Metro 🥇
Lots of riders chose to stay at home with the conditions being fairly grim - well done to everyone that braved it and still pinned a number on!

Rocacorba gravel ride out with some dust clouds, loose sketchy descents and a tyre that decided it had enough halfway round ⚰️
Getting the bad luck out of the way before Traka this weekend 🙏🏼

Carron Valley Crusher ⛰️❄️
A tough opening race for round for the @gralba_series with cold temps, sleet and a testing pair of courses to tackle! An 8km prologue followed by a mass start bunch race made for a different format 👌
🥇 John – 1st V40 Men
🥈 Lois – 2nd V40 Women
🥈 Ryan – 2nd U35
Solid graft all round and a fun couple of days up North despite the weather 💪

A long standing Muckle tradition - a hilly excursion to the North Pennines on Bank Holiday Monday.
Tough climbs, rapid descents and quiet roads - nigh perfect road riding (if you like it lumpy!)
Cracking cafe stop in Middleton and a fast blast back to Tyneside 💯

We’re excited to be launching the North East Road Race Series 2026 with entries open very soon 📆
A new three-round series delivered in collaboration between @reifenracing@ne1cyclingperformance and Wansbeck Wheelers.
Over the past few years, road racing opportunities in the region have been limited, and this series is about changing that - bringing riders back to the start line and inspiring the next generation.
This is very much a community-led project, and we’re inviting local businesses, cycling brands and supporters to get involved.
Whether it’s helping with prizes, contributing to event delivery, or simply backing the series, every bit of support helps us build something sustainable for the future. Have a look at the deck we’ve put together to find out more.
Supported by:
SCOTT Sports • Wahoo • Quoc • The Endurance Academy • Band of Climbers • Backyard Bike Shop • Ride Sunderland
If you’d like to get involved drop us a message or email.
Let’s build something great for North East cycling!

Ryan, Ian and Marcin headed up to Gifford to open the road season.
Blustery conditions made it a proper test 🌬️
Good to get the first one ticked off -and even better to keep it rubber side down after a few sketchy moments in the bunch.

🚨 NE ROAD RACE SERIES UPDATE 🚨
📅 Dates confirmed
🤝 Partner clubs confirmed
🔥 Series building momentum
Massive thanks to NE1 Performance, Reifen Racing, and Wansbeck Wheelers for stepping up and backing the vision. This is exactly what we need - clubs collaborating to bring more road racing back to the North East.
We’ve got:
✔️ Courses being finalised & risk assessed
✔️ Organisers being confirmed
✔️ HQ bookings underway
✔️ Budget & logistics progressing
Muckle are committed to make this happen, and with these clubs on board we’re building something sustainable - not just for this year, but long term.
We want to give riders a reason to fork out for a race licence!
Thanks to those that have already messaged us offering to support with prizes - we’d like to get as many sponsors on board as possible so if you’d like to donate something for the prize pot please drop us a line 🤙🏼
