Social media followers back adult entertainment industry-based club whose members raise thousands for charity
A cycling club made up of people in the adult entertainment industry has been told by British Cycling that it cannot be affiliated with the governing body because its name – Porn Pedallers Cycling Club – breaches UCI rules.
BREAKING NEWS: Cycling is for everyone. Except people like us @pornpedallers. Today @BritishCycling revoked our club affiliation because PPCC breaches @UCI_cycling regulation 1.1.089. We're just a cycling club, riding for fun & raising money for @THTorguk. Is this justified?

In a tweet posted yesterday evening, Porn Pedallers Cycling Club said “Cycling is for everyone. Except people like us.”
Asking “Is it justified?,” the tweet also pointed out that its members ride for fun, as well as raising money for the Terence Higgins Trust, the charity that campaigns on and provides services relating to HIV and sexual health.

The tweet has received messages of support from followers on social media, from both within the adult entertainment industry and the wider cycling community.
Formed in 2016 and headed by Chris Ratcliff, owner of Television X which is one of its sponsors, members of the club – some of whom are award-winning porn stars – have taken part in sportives at home and abroad, including organising an annual trip to the Spring Classics in Belgium.
Ahead of a trip to the Tour of Flanders two years ago, several members received the well-wishes of Sir Chris Hoy, while others had their photo taken with Geraint Thomas during last year’s Tour de France, shortly before raising almost £7,000 for the Terrence Higgins Trust at the Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100.

If the bishop had been a knight he could have taken her.
Funny, treasonous but funny.
