Youth Hostel Association (YHA) members can now get 50% off Cycling UK membership, according to the latest YHA email newsletter:
"For those of you that enjoy getting out and about on two wheels, Cycling UK are now able to offer YHA members 50% off individual and family memberships. This is a fantastic saving of £24 for individuals and £39 for families. Included with the membership of Cycling UK are insurance benefits, discounts from retailers, a weekly e-newsletter packed full of cycling news and advice, plus bi-monthly Cycle, the UKs most-read cycling magazine. They also have hundreds of member groups and affiliate groups across the UK you can ride with.
Get the most out of your YHA membership by finding out more about your [YHA] benefits."
If I've read this correctly, this means you can save money simply by buying YHA membership, which costs £15 per year. This will cost you less than the saving you'll make on Cycling UK membership, so you save money and get effectively free YHA membership.
Too good to be true? I have not tried it as I have life membership of CUK, but if someone would like to try it, and let me know the results, I'll update this post.

I m a life member of the YHA and was told the offer of reduced Cycling uk membership is only open to new members of the YHA. I did take the opportunity to have a moan about the quality of the maps in the Rebellion Way booklet. Very inferior to Sustrans mapping .
