Evening Time Trial series

The Club Thursday evening Time Trial Series runs from April to August.

Riders compete for the overall Points Championship (male and female) and the Collard Shield (for most improved rider)

What is the Evening TT Series?

The club evening TT series is a great introduction to racing. It’s friendly and competitive but you don’t need a fancy bike or a pointy helmet to take part. Just come along and have fun.
Check the calender for the location of each weeks race (April – August)
To compete, sign on at least 15 minutes before the race, paying your entry fee (see below). Sign on for all courses is located near the start line. 
You will be given a start number; riders start in 1 minute intervals in number order. Rider number 1 starts at the advertised start time (typically 18:45)
Each rider is held at the start so they can clip in their pedals. You will receive a 30 second warning, then a countdown from 10.
Ride as fast as you can! It is important to familiarise yourself with the course in advance and course maps are available below
Once every rider has finished results will be posted on a board
