Just putting this here in case some people don't look in the Racing section.

Have a look at the 'sticky' at the top of the Racing Section for all the details, but basically 27th October gates open at 1pm (to register), races start at 2pm.

It's fee to enter.

One race for 2nd and 3rd cats
Sepearate race for 4th cats and novices.

All welcome, this is a superb way to "have a go". No stress, no pressure, surrounded by club mates. I used the event last year to dip my toe and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Yes but you'll be in the 2/3 race, that will be a full-blooded, club bragging rights affair, with every trick in the book being used.

The 4ths and novices is a far more welcoming environment. :D

Glad to say that once again Cycling Weekly will be sponsoring this momentous occasion with a glittering prize list (although rumours that Mark 'the ringer' Cavendish has been lined up as a 1-day ACC member to compete have proved groundless.)

So far they've donated:

3 Exclusive TdeF in London polo shirts

3 Haynes complete bicycle maintenance manuals (glossy hardback
books, v.nice)

loads of pairs of CW socks

Go Bars

Power bar protein plus bars

Winter training guides

Lots more kit/books/dvds etc to come...

Plus a load of undisclosed goodies which will be handed out as prime prizes or spot prizes given to riders who we think are deserving on the day (Last year Paul Tunnell cleaned up as the rider who got shelled out of every group on the track... twice! We felt sorry for him)


If anyone else has any prize donations please contact either myself or Toks

So come out and race or even just to shout the guys on and make it another great ACC day out

Good man, Jon - besides, you need something to take your mind off Millwall :wink:

I guess everyone will be riding down, so it's just a case of following anyone who looks like they know where they're going.
