The series has made a few tweaks to the points system to try to reduce the problems of missing races in school/family holidays
— 15 races from 19 to count
— Individual stages in stage races now get only half points
— Reduced the number of big scoring events in the summer holidays
— Introduced a new circuit for a stage race time trial – starting on the big bend and running up under the bridge to finish at the top of the hill just before the hairpin. Under 1km, but a lung burster. A real prologue type of effort

Also introduced two new race formats
— Points race – They experimented with this in the stage races last year and it worked well so this year they have some main events run as points races – sprints every lap, the winner being the rider with most points
— Golden Lap – their version of the Enneco Tour Golden KM, its a normal race apart from there will be 3 or 4 equally spaced sprints on the final lap, the winner being the rider gathering most points in these sprints

The race programme is on their website and events should be loaded on the BC Events site in the next few weeks. A downloadable programme will also be available on their website shortly
