Welsh Cycling (Welsh: Beicio Cymru. Formerly the Welsh Cycling Union) is "the internationally recognised" governing body of cycling in Wales. It has over 140 cycling clubs in Wales. It administers all six cycling disciplines—BMX; cyclo-cross; mountain biking (downhill and cross-country); road racing; time trials; and track racing. Welsh Cycling is responsible for all aspects of sports cycling in Wales including competitions and racing licences and organising the Wales Commonwealth Games cycling team.[1][2]

Welsh Cycling is based at the Wales National Velodrome, Newport International Sports Village, Newport.[2]
