The British Cycling Federation controls the competitive side of cycling in Britain. While Britain has not produced many cyling greats and has very few riders on the professional Road Circuit, there are a number of good British mountain bikers, BMX riders and track cyclists. However, the internal amateur events are well organised and although cycling is a minority sport, recreational cycling is very popular.

Recently, (September 2004) it organised the Tour of Britain, a five day cycling race climaxing in London in front of a packed crowd. This did much to improve the profile of Road Racing in the UK, although the teams competing didn't send their finest riders.

The BCF does have links with many other cycling organisations in the UK, such as the London Cyling Campaign ( LCC), Cyclist's Touring Club ( CTC) and Sustrans.
