King and Queen of the Bowl Criterium Race Series #13

Closed Circuit , Milton Keynes – Thursday, 18 Jul 2024

Event Summary

Event Overview

April 2024 sees the return of Thursday evening MK Bowl Criterium races.  Details of entry and timing chip allocation will be shown in rider information.  There will be one period of two weeks in August when the circuit is not available as the MK Bowl is being used for concerts.  

This will be a league series with the best counting results used to create the league table.  There will be 16 events in total with the first 15 being counting weeks towards the league table and the last week being a standalone event.  The best 10 results of 15 events will count for the league tables.  The Women's race will be 234 each week with Elite and Cat 1 Women able to enter the later Open races so all women's categories can enter a race every week. 

The racing format is as follows:

  • Open 4 and Women’s 234 races running 1 min apart concurrently on the inner Bowl course starting at 6:15 pm in April and August and 6:30 in May, June, July.  Subject to conditions we will run the early races on an extended loop one week in four.

Followed by

  • Open 34 (including Women 12) and Open E123 (including Women Elite and Cat 1) races on the extended loop courses (subject to weather conditions) running 1 minute apart concurrently starting at 7.05 pm April and August then 7.25 in May, June, July. 

Local rules will apply and will be made clear via all communication formats.

A maximum of 80 riders may compete at the Bowl at any one time, so numbers will be allocated as below:

  • Race 1:  Men’s 4 race - 40 rider limit. Women's 234 race - 40 rider limit.
  • Race 2: Open 34 race - 50 rider limit. Open E123 race - 30 rider limit.

The King and Queen of the Bowl League Tables can be viewed on the TeamMK Website.

Prizes and series Trophies will be awarded by our sponsors Corley Cycles and Abbeygate Developments.
