News: Entries open for Handicap League

Entries are open for this year’s Shropshire and South Staffordshire handicap league. The races for all categories from juniors upwards, men and women, are held on Thursday evenings at venues across the northern half of the region, with seven events in total starting on May 12 and finishing on July 7.

The races provide a perfect way for riders who want to get into road racing or for those who are looking to develop their skills, because the riders are divided into ability groups which start separately before the field (usually) comes together late on in the race. Hence you are riding in a smaller group than usual for much of the race.

All riders are given a finishing position which counts towards their final league placing, so even if you are one of the back markers you can check your progress against your personal rivals.

The first race is on the circuit at Knighton in Staffordshire, with the final round on the pancake flat loop at Charlton in Shropshire.

Entry is available to pre-register for the whole series for £105, which makes this one of the cheapest ways to road race. Entry is also available for individual rounds at £22 each.
