Closed Circuit , Hemel Hempstead – Wednesday, 22 Jun 2022

Event Summary

Event Overview

THE 2022 HHCC Santini BOVINGDON BOMBER SUMMER CRITERIUM SERIES
HHCC run criterium racing at the popular HHCC Bovingdon Bomber Cycle Circuit. The Bomber is a 1 mile long smooth purpose built racing circuit. It is fast, flat, sweeping and technical and always produces good safe racing. We are supported by Santini, Velofique and Lovelo/Venture Performance. Judith Parry and Richard Knight are our two official photographers.

REVISED WEDNESDAY TIMETABLE (earlier mens race  - now at 7.45pm)
6.30pm Arrive & Sign on NO EARLIER 
6:45pm Circuit open to racers (extended warmup as womens race cancelled)
7:45pm Men's race (40mins + 5 laps)

Entry £16 in advance or £20 on the night. We have recently invested a substantial sum in new tarmac at the circuit to make it safer for our riders so have had to put a "tarmac tax" of £1 on the entry fee to go towards paying this money back.   

SORRY NO TRANSFERS OR REFUNDS - Please don't ask - just too much admin for me.

STRICTLY NO ARRIVAL BEFORE 6.30pm IF WE ARE TO BE ALLOWED TO KEEP USING THE CIRCUIT. THE DRIFT LIMITS CUSTOMERS ARE LEAVING AND THE TEAM ARE PACKING AWAY CARS.

FIRST AID
Although we have an excellent safety record at the Bomber, professional dedicated first aid will be present at all our evenings.
