The Old Members Association

Published: January 29, 2025

In 1950 the St. Christopher’s Catholic Cycling Club Old Members Association was formed. It allowed former members to meet up and keep in touch with the Club. Social events, weekend walks, pilgrimages and memorial masses were organised.

A Members List was published in pamphlet form and updated until 2020 when the Association predominately in London closed.

The Members List is now available to be seen at The Modern Records Centre, University of Warwick T.P. 02476524219 and archive@warwick.ac.uk.

In 2015 a New Members List was introduced into the St. Christopher’s Website.
