I'm not a cyclist myself ~ merely a rambler ~ but recently our rambling club was in Belford, Northumberland, which is just off the A1, about 9 miles NE of Wooler. A number of us wondered about a large bronze-coloured plaque on the front of The Blue Bell Hotel in the centre of the Village (OS REF 109339) ~ It looked like a bicycle wheel with three wings on the hub and CTC in gothic letters . . . None of us knew what it signified but I had an idea in the back of my lumber-room mind that it was something to do with cycling, so I got on the net and soon found your CTC site
