New riders are welcome!: We have three ride licences if you want to try things out. PLUS coaches and helpers will be present to guide new riders for a fun and safe race for all.

Dropped riders: In WC and Men’s F, dropped riders are allowed to get back onto the back of the bunch so long as they don't influence the race or contest the sprint, so you can challenge yourself against strong riders and still get value for your money.

Qualifying for F grade: As F grade is a new for us, we’ll need to use our judgment in the first weeks, plus we’ll be relying on rider’s own judgement. New riders and riders who tend to finish in the lower half of men’s E on Wednesdays are welcome. If you are too strong for the field we’ll suggest that you step up a grade!
