Torbay CTC Archive

Welcome to the Torbay CTC Archive.
This site preserves a unique record of the Torbay CTC section, with a special focus on the years 1978 to 1985.
The archive brings together for the first time the club’s ride reports, photographs, and attendance lists from this period.

The collection includes hundreds of scanned photographs and slides, many of which are being painstakingly restored and enhanced using modern scanning and AI techniques to recover colour, detail, and clarity from the original film.
Reports from club activities and social events are also included, together with historical attendance records.

While this archive only covers a small part of Torbay’s long and vibrant cycling history, it aims to bring memories of those years back to life for ex-members, friends, and all those interested in local cycling heritage.
