Process for amending the Technical Regulations

The following process has been created for updating the Technical Regulations going forward:

1. Complete the Member Survey using the link below or email your suggestion to techregs@britishcycling.org.uk. Please specify a regulation number wherever possible to assist us in reviewing your suggestion.
2. Commission meetings shall take place from March onwards – they will be asked to review proposed changes to Technical Regulations (including Scottish and Welsh commissions); this will be a standing item on their agendas.
3. The Member Survey will be publicised annually in April/May.
4. We shall be drafting updates to the Technical Regulations, ready for next Commission meetings in September.
5. Technical Commission (or Board, if necessary) to meet in December and approve any changes.
6. Handbook goes to publishers in December.

Please note that the 2020 Regulations will continue to be adhered to until 28 February 2021.
