Reg Braddick (born Reginald Kenneth Braddick 4 August 1913 - December 1999) was a Welsh racing cyclist from Cardiff. He represented Wales at the 1938 British Empire Games in Sydney, Australia. [http://www.regbraddickcycles.com/History.htm Reg Braddick Cycles] ]

His interest in cycling started whilst working as a Butcher's delivery boy in Cardiff. He opened 'Reg Braddick Cycles' on Broadway, Roath, Cardiff in 1945, and first had the idea of starting 'Cardiff Ajax Cycling Club' in the flat above the shop. Since then, many successful cyclists have started out as members of Cardiff Ajax, such as Sally Hodge and Nicole Cooke. The shop is still going strong, and is being run by his son David, daughter in law Janet and Grand-daughter Suzy.
