Kick-off party and Pop-Up

Montrose Harbor CX race weekend

The most beloved event of the Chicago Cyclocross Series is here, and we'd like to invite you to join the fun. On December 7, we will be hosting a kick-off and packet pick-up party at the Clubhouse with food and drink provided. The following day Rapha Chicago is a proud returning sponsor of the final race in the Montrose Harbor. With iconic views of the city and racing from 8am till 4:30pm, Rapha will set up a Pop-Up with special prices on kit for the event only.

The Rapha Cycling Club

This week we launched the new Rapha Cycling Club proposition – everything members love and more at a new, lower price. It’s the perfect gift for the cyclist in your life this season.

Members get more

Rapha Cycling Club members get more. The Club is built on five pillars that support and enrich their Rapha experience: an active social network supported by our very own app, priority access and exclusive products, outstanding rides and experiences and meeting places across the world.

Rapha Foundation

Boulder Junior Cycling

The Rapha Foundation was launched this year with the goal of building a better future for cycling by inspiring, empowering and supporting the next generation of racers.

Among the first grantees are Boulder Junior Cycling, a year-round youth cycling program in Boulder, Colorado, and one of the largest and most successful junior cycling teams in the United States.

We spoke with Pete Webber, BJC Executive Director, to find out how the grant will aid the aims of the organisation.

Brand new books

We’ve two new additions to the Rapha bookstore that make perfect gifts this festive season. The first is our latest Handbook 04: Exploring Off-Road, written by a former British cyclocross champion and full of advice for those who plan to get dirty this winter. The second is the EF Annual, a collectible edition that summarises a spectacular year in pro cycling in colourful cartoon style.

Gifts made easy

Choose a gift voucher this festive season and make sure your favourite cyclist gets exactly what they want.

And finally…

Even if the weather is looking a little wild where you are, we doubt your ride can be any worse than Allan Peiper’s on the Marmolada. Take a look at the label from our Classic Insulated Jersey to see why.
