The 2008 100 was a great success. Special thanks are due to Stuart Twigg and Peter Catherall for all their hard work in making it all run smoothly, and to Keith Orum and Bob McNamee for timing the event - and for waiting so long for the last riders home - as a result the timekeepers' day was a long distance trial in itself. Click here for the Results Sheet The Anfield Bicycle Club was formed in 1879 in the Anfield district of Liverpool. The "Anfield" has an important place in cycling history. Our riders helped shape competitive long distance cycling and time-trialling. Outstanding Anfielders included prolific record breaker George Pilkington Mills, who won the first Bordeaux - Paris race in 1891. His exploits helped inspire the Tour de France.

The Anfield Bicycle Club and Liverpool Football Club share the same roots thanks to our second President John Houlding (brewer, sometime Mayor of Liverpool, and consul to Istanbul). He was also the founder of Liverpool Football Club in 1892 having been left with a ground and no team after evicting Everton from Anfield over a rent dispute.
