Event Summary
Event Overview
Welcome to 321 Racing at Bike Park Kernow.
What is 321 racing?
- It's a low cost, low stakes racing format. It's a fun way of racing, cheering (heckling) is compulsory
- The tracks are aimed at entry level and experienced racers alike
- It is a short DH style track.
- There are no categories, everyone is racing everyone.
- Timing is done by means of stop watch and you are counted in (Hence 321 racing) If you are late off the line, the clock will be ticking regardless...
- If you have always wanted to try racing, but were worried about the pressure of racing, then this is the race for you.
This is racing with a twist, here's how it differs from normal racing:
This round of 321 is a 'Down'duro' Double Jeopardy race, here is how it will work:
- All riders will do a track walk and 1 hour practise session on 2 short DH tracks.
- After Practise, riders will then complete a timed run on the first DH track.
- There will then be another timed run for all riders on the second DH track.
- After both runs, riders will then have a choice. They can choose to keep their times from run 1 and 2, or they can choose to re run one of the tracks. But your rerun time will count, regardless of if you go slower or faster!
- There will be podium places for the fastest 3 times of the day.
Tickets are strictly limited to 60 places and must be purchased in advance through British Cycling.
This event is for riders of all ages!
Each race entry includes a complimentary hot dog.
