One of the benefits of CRW membership is the CRW name tag. Attached to your helmet, saddlebag or bike it lets people know who you are.

More importantly, it contains contact information should you be injured on a ride.

The updated Name Tags are now available for order in the CRW Store. The tags will include member first name in large letter format and member last name in small letter format. Each Name Tag will have the member's In Case of Emergency number on them.

Name Tags are free for CRW members!

All members who have joined the club since January 1, 2025 will automatically receive a Name Tag.

Renewing Members who are looking to order or replace their name tag may request an updated tag on the CRW Store on the website. To find the store, click on the Members tab and then click on the Store tab. You can then order your Name Tag. Please give us time to print the Name Tag and mail it to you. 

Please make sure your information is up-to-date in your CRW Profile as this will be used to make your Name Tag.

Information needed is:

• Your First and Last Name.
• Name and phone number of your emergency contact.
• Your current mailing address (Name Tag will be mailed to you).

If you have questions or concerns, contact us at member-benefits@crw.org.

Regular price: $4,995 / person (Price is inclusive of most food & drink on and off the bike, ground transport, tourism & more. See the trip page for details. Limited private rooms are available for $700 additional.)

VIBE Tours is an adventurous cycling travel company connecting fans with their favorite champions for fun and unforgettable trips in top European destinations.

Their tours in southern Spain this October feature Sepp Kuss of Team Visma | Lease a Bike. Sepp won the 2023 Vuelta a España and is “the chillest guy in the pro peloton,” according to fellow racer Matteo Jorgenson.

Ride through the gorgeous farmland and mountains west of Málaga. Pop into some of Spain's most beautiful villages for lunch and coffee. Go from the hills above the Mediterranean to the lush pine forests and limestone peaks of the Sierra de Grazalema nature preserve. Along the way, stop in some of Spain's most beautiful towns. With good roads, mild climate, epic climbs and flowing descents, this bicycle paradise is a bucket-list destination.

There will be 290 miles and 29,000 feet of climbing spread over five rides with a rest day in the middle, and plenty of stops to refuel, catch your breath, and take in the scene—it's a challenging but rewarding adventure. Sepp will join each group for one full day on and off the bike, making it an intimate way to get inspired by somebody at the top of their game!
