Once again the championships - the pinnacle of the South West regional calendar – will take place in Hatherleigh, Devon. Riders will battle on a challenging but balanced route to decide this year’s Junior, Women’s and Men’s champions.

The 2013 titles went to Tom Bayliss (Junior), Mathilde Pauls (Women) and George Pym (Senior). All are eligible to defend their regional championship status, but are sure to face stiff competition from the region’s leading riders. However, the championships are not just about the winners, this is the one chance in the year to gather together with the regions riders for a straight up road race; to rate yourself against your immediate cycling peers. It’s a superb race to be a part of and as well as acknowledging the winners achievements, the top finishing third category riders there will also be rewarded.

There will be separate races for the Junior and Women in the morning, with the Men racing in the afternoon, over 80miles of Devon’s finest roads. Organised by the SW Regional Road Race Workgroup, and kindly supported by Primal clothing and Roger Young cars, we are looking for this to be the biggest and best regional championships ever.
