The VTTA is for anyone over 40 years of age who has an interest in time trialling. The site provides details of current activities, racing information and details of useful contacts in Surrey and Sussex.

The VTTA was established in 1943 by E H Strevens, with the aim of providing the older racing cyclist with realistic competition so they would be encouraged to continue in the sport after their abilities had started to decline. Strevens devised a set of Standards in tabular form, which provide individuals with an unending challenge, thereby providing motivation for continuous competition within the sport. The Standards, which are either times for set distances, or distances for set times begin at the age of 40 and become more generous with each passing year standards for women are similar to those for men but there is a phased shift to reflect physiological differences.
