The Elite race will be approximately 50 minutes in duration. Whilst Juniors and Youth riders will be accepted, they must be minimum 2nd year Youth B and endorsed by the Coaching team of the JYC. The event will be limited to 50 riders and the Organisers reserve the right to move riders to the Sport race if oversubscribed.
The Sport race will be run over the same course and will be approximately 35 minutes in duration. The Sport race is intended to be a fun race and is perfectly suited to both newcomers and experienced riders. Juniors and Youth riders will be accepted, they must be minimum Youth B. The event will be limited to 50 riders.
For the Points Series, points will be awarded to all starters in each category, with 60 points for each race winner, 59 points for second place etc. All finishers will receive points. All 5 rounds to count and the series winner in each category will be the one to have attained most points over the series. Gridding at each round will be based on current points positions. Gridding for this first event will be based upon finishing positions in last years reduced race series.
