News: Circuit for Crit Champs

The course for the forthcoming British Circuit Championships in Stockton-on-Tees has been revealed. The men’s and women’s national champions will both be crowned on what is due to be a sensational evening of racing in the town centre on Friday July 13.

Both races will start and finish on the pedestrianised section of the High Street, with riders initially heading north before circling back through the town centre. Riders complete a long, fast straight past the Town Hall, before doubling back on themselves and tackling the finishing straight.

The women’s race will begin at 6:15pm and the men’s at 7:45pm, with both events taking in an hour of racing plus five additional laps of the circuit. Won last year by Olympic, world and Commonwealth champion, Katie Archibald, and one of the sport’s rising stars, Tom Pidcock, the Circuit Championships is one of the most important championships on the domestic road calendar with events like the Tour Series and Elite Circuit Series giving the champions the chance to show off their stripes.
