Phil & Sarah were over the moon to celebrate 20 years in Business in October 2023 and as part of these celebrations, we had a little facelift. Our friends at Ast Signs carried out a full rebrand, making a big point of our history - The fact Arragons Cycles was founded way back in 1969 and has been proudly independently family owned since then.
With the new branding, we evolved #TeamArragons - a movement for anyone who wants to be part of a group of positive individuals supporting each other, whatever their endeavors may be. We aren't a registered club, but want to make our shop #YourHub.
The concept was realised after the fall of our original Triathlon Club and no less than 13 friends of Arragons Cycles entered Ironman Barcelona; Such a group needed an identity along with the many supporters who flew out to Calella to spectate. Some of the group can be classed as Elite, some are regular participants to Ironman, some are taking on the challenge for the first time & some are doing it to justify their consumption of beer at the end! 2023 saw a record number of athletes, all supporting each other along the way and the 35+ support crew cheering #TeamArragons!
In Autumn 2025, Sarah had corrective knee surgery so has been recovering with physio and lots of static cycling. 2026 is going to be about regaining strength and fitness, with a 'Round Cumbria' cycle challenge planned for Autumn. We also look ahead for 2027 and are recruiting friends to take part in another Ironman event, possibly Spain but we're open to suggestions - keep checking in for updates.
Our rebranded look remains as our simple yet striking identity - timeless monochrome - is not only highly visible but will match any colour of bike or running shoe. The bright white ensures high visibility, while background black is flattering for the figure! Due to demand, our range will now include some vibrant blues and dulcet greys to complement. The main focus is #Team so branding is about the cog. We have some wonderful support from local business who are proud to be emblazoned - our great friends AST Signs, Beech House Holidays, James Pittam Health & Fitness, Stuart Robinson Personal Trainer & Docker Reid PT.
Fancy joining the #Team? Awesome! We offer 2 swim sessions a week, the chance to cycle up to three times a week and we'll soon announce some open water sessions along with a strength and conditioning session. We will be selecting an event to attend en mass and look forward to reigniting the flame that used to shine bright when we were Arragons Cumbrian Triathlon Club.
If your goal is to run a mile or a marathon, swim a length of the pool or the lake, complete your first super sprint tri or an Ironman, we will be there to support & encourage you every step of the way - wearing #TeamArragons will ensure you get a cheer!
