  Chip timing

  New for the 2013-14 season is chip timing. This means that you’ll get reliable, comprehensive timing data … but only if you remember to wear your chip!

  Race in category

  If you wish to accumulate League points through the 2013-14 season you need to do a couple of things:

  • Join the League, or be a member of a League affiliated club – details;
  • Ride in your correct Age category – Categories.
  • NO bar ends

    Reminder – Handlebar ends

    The League does not permit bikes with bar ends in it’s races.

    Equipment pits

    The equipment pits will once again be divided into “manned” and “unmanned” areas – please use appropriately.

    Reminder – the pits are a potentially dangerous work area and must be treated as such.

    There is lots more information in the Riders – Useful information section.

    … and finally, have a good safe race!
