The Crystal Palace Closed Circuit Road Race starts this tuesday evening. It then runs throughout the summer EVERY TUESDAY, Seniors start at 19:00 £10 Entry on the Line only.

Course is a short sharp Criterium course, with one steedy hill and a couple of very tight turns. New for 2010 - for safety reason the circuit will be run CLOCKWISE. Depending on light races are usually over 20 - 30 laps. Very good for improving your fitness and bike handling, although DON'T ride if it's been raining that day as the corners are very slippery.

You're kidding me? They're running the race the other way? That's a joke.

A course is only dangerous if you ride it dangerously.

I think they should run it clockwise. It would be a right good laugh watching at the corner at the bottom of the hill....

Not been to the Park of late but according to LCS:
[quote]Further more Bromley Council have [size=150]resurfaced the top section of the circuit [/size]and more work maybe undertaken in April and May, and again more will be known closer to that time.

Hooooo-ray, hopefully no more bone-shaking along the top.
