Bath Cycle Races

Bath Cycle Races It has been many years since the smell of embrocation has wafted around Victoria Park in Bath but it's going to be back for four Wednesdays in May.

Next month sees the exciting return of the Bath Cycle Races and with a slightly different format compared to your average bike race you're promised some hard and fast racing from the off. With the support of Bath and North East Somerset Council, British Cycling and with the collaboration of four local cycling clubs (Somer Valley CC, Avonlea-Treasure RT, Velo Club Walcot and Bath CC) spectacular ra

cing returns to Victoria Park each Wednesday evening in May with a 6.45pm start. And with an overall prize fund in excess of 2,000 the competition is bound to be fierce. Each race will be an action packed fifteen to thirty minutes long. There will be separate races for Youth A/B, 3rd and 4th category riders and women, with the evening of racing finishing with the Elite 1st and 2nd category race. Series leader and points leader jerseys will also be awarded after the final round.

Pre-Winter Series Race Coaching

We are running three pre-season coaching sessions in November to help you get your racing eye in before the Winter Series starts in December.

Sessions are aimed to help both new racers build the skills to race and for experienced racers to sharpen their skills and tactics.

Sessions have limited capacity, so booking in advance is essential.

Let me know if you have any questions,

Odd Down Winter Series - points and prizes

Here is a preview of the series points, BC points and prize list for the Winter Series. I have included a comment on the changes BC have made to Round One - removing licence points - any thoughts and opinions on this? (see below)

http://www.avid-sport.co.uk/528-2/

"Unfortunately, British Cycling have decided to downgrade Round One to a Regional C race – as a result there will be no BC points for Round One. This is something that they have imposed upon us and we are disappointed that it has worked out this way. We hope that this will open the opportunity for riders who would be racing on day licences (and therefore would not be eligible for points anyway) to give their first race a go before deciding whether to purchase a full race licence for 2018. Several riders from the Avid Sport team (including myself in the men’s 2/3), particularly in the women’s 4th cat race have already entered to take this opportunity to take their first racing steps. We appreciate all the support that local riders have given the racing at Odd Down over the last few years."
