THE RACE:
The Peaks 2 Day is a National B stage race on the 18th and 19th of March 2023 in the Peak District. There will be men’s and women’s races with equal prize money, leaders jerseys and KOM jerseys. There will also be a team prize. The format of the race has slightly changed this year with the men’s and women’s time trials on separate days in order to cater for more riders and to allow the race to run smoother. This event is open to Elite, 1st, 2nd and 3rd category riders. With so few National Series events, here’s hoping teams and riders support races such as this.

Team entries will be given priority but there should be plenty of space for individual entries too. Team sizes are limited to a maximum of 4 riders. Two reserve riders can be submitted for each team, team substitutions can be made up until Friday the 10th of March 11:55pm. Entries close Saturday 4th of March 11:55pm. In the event that not all places are fulfilled, we will start to accept team reserve riders and increase team sizes.
Only road bikes are permitted in the time trial stages.
