Our Summer Series of Racing starts on Bank Holiday Monday 6th May and runs for 11 weeks through to Monday 15th July.

As with past years, as well as British Cycling Points awarded for A/B Category races, series points are also awarded for each race attended. A bonus 5 points are awarded to each rider who compete in the first five events, and a further 5 points for attending the second 5 events. The 11th event does not attract series points and is used as the awards ceremony for the series. Britsih Cycling points were appropriate will still be awarded.

With all our Summer Series races, gear checks for youth riders are conducted AFTER the event. Please be aware that we are consistent with are gear checks and only an under or on measurement is acceptable. Any gear deemed as over is OVER and shall result in a DQ. We have plenty of checking points available for you to self check before the races.
