Getting into TT - without a club?

Hi,
My boyfriend wants to start doing some open TTs with me, while I'm a member of a club he isn't. Does anyone know what the cheapest way to get CTC affiliated is? Are there any online only clubs that will just allow you to be affiliated? He only has a TT bike so can't really do club rides.
Thanks

This. I basically never go on club runs with my club yet I still participate in other ways.

If he's friendly/good enough after a while people will forget he's not part of the club (especially if he's with you and you are part of the club - people will just assume that he's followed in your wheel tracks, so to speak) and he can carry on as is.

He can usually do club events without being in a registered club, but not open events. It's about insurance as much as anything.
Time trialling (as all amateur cycle racing) depends upon clubs and club members to run events, and by being in a club (and helping out sometimes) is the way that the sport can continue.
No mention of CTT affiliation so no open TT entries with these - only British cycling TT events which are few and far between.
Assuming your club is CTT, yes easiest if he just joins your club - he needn't ever go near the club if he doesn't want, never do a club ride
But it would be rather considerate if he did put something back, eg marshalled at your club's event, rather than just taking by doing events other people put on...
