This event is the third running of the popular team race for women riders first held in 2013.  The 2015 race will take place on Saturday 23rd May 2015. 

There 2015 course will remain the same as for 2014, as will the format with the morning prologue stage of approximately 5 miles and the main road race commencing early afternoon and being approximately 30 miles in length.  This race will consist of 4 laps of the same 7.3 mile undulating circuit used in 2013 and 2014, starting and finishing in the village of Limerigg and using quiet B-roads for its entirety.

The Sharon Argue Memorial Trophy will be awarded to the best placed team following combination of the prologue and race results.

Teams will comprise a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 5 riders, with the best 3 individual results counting towards the team competition.

Riders will ride the 5 mile prologue as an individual time trial.  The rider with the fastest time will receive 1 point, 2nd fastest 2 points, 3rd fastest 3 points, and so on down the field until all riders completing the course are allocated a score.

The three best scores for each team will be combined to give an overall team total for the prologue.

The same scoring format will apply to the afternoon road race i.e. the winning rider will score 1 point, 2nd placed 2 points, and so on.  Again, the three best scores will be combined to count towards the team competition.  The scores for the prologue and road race will be combined to determine the overall winning team.
