Youth Racing and Cat 3/4 Senior Race

2pm - 4:30pm Youth racing for all ages up to Cat A - (approx 16 and under) we are hoping to run an event every month during the season.  For this event we are including a 3/4 race as the circuit is ours for the day and we thought why not.

Followed at 5pm by a Cat 3/4 race at an ideal time for a debrief in your favourite hostelry.

The races will be on the Bowls inner circuit only.

Each race is a standalone event but Youth Riders who enter at least 3 events during the season as Part of our development series will be entered into a series culminating in crowning the Youth King and Queen of the Bowl.

Participation Emphasis: The heart of the Milton Keynes Development Races lies in encouraging participation. Every racer, regardless of experience, is welcome to join and showcase their passion for the sport. It's not all just about winning; it's about being part of a community that shares the love to race bikes.

Entry will close on the Thursday night  prior to the event.

YOUTH RACING

Registration will open at 1:15pm and will close 20 minutes before the final youth race at 3:10pm

Please be at the start 5 minutes before the published start time.

We will endeavour to keep to the published timings but given the amount of racing this is not always possible, but we will not start races early!

We have to ask that you remain off the circuit until you are called to the start line. It is not always possible to ride the circuit between races to warm up, there will be a formation lap to allow people to see the circuit before racing.

GIRLS RACES (Cat A and B)

It is our philosophy to  give Female racers the opportunity to race alone, this can be a challenge given the variable number of racers. The plan is to race the U14 and U16s girls together after the as the last race. 

If we do not have enough to constitute a Peloton ( a combined approx 10-15) we will run them with the U14 Boys at the earlier time. We will make the decision on the Friday before the event.

On the flip of this if we get enough entries to run the U14 and U16 we will do this also. 

CAT 3/4 Seniors Open Race

Registration will open 1 hour prior to the race at 4pm, and will close 15 minutes before the published start time.

There will be youth racing finishing when you arrive so it may not be possible to warm up on the circuit, 

If you have any question please contact the organisers on the email below before hand or ask any of the Volunteers who will be willing to help. youth@teammk.com
