Miche West Thames Rnd 14

Closed Circuit , Hayes – Tuesday, 18 Jul 2023

Event Summary

Event Overview

Back for another year this ever popular series promoted by West Thames promotions will start on Tuesday 18th April 2023, and run every Tuesday till the 1st August. There will then be a break during August with 3 Saturdays running in September, culminating in the Hillingdon GP events.

Race format will follow the same format as last year, a separate 4th category race to start at 6.30 p.m. followed by an E/12/3 event and running at the same time a 3rds only event.

In addition to this and following feedback we will be running a women's event every 2 weeks on a Tuesday starting from the 2nd May which will run at the same time as the 4ths cats but will start separately. The womens classification will change slightly offering a 3rd4th option then 2 weeks later a E/1/2/3 race. 

Women are welcome to ride in the men's events on the dates when there are no separate women's event and can ride in one category below their normal race category if they wish to enter either the 4ths or 3rds race

About the Event

Info for Riders

Riders do not have to join the West Thames league to participate (yearly cost £12) but if they do they will benefit from a reduction on entry fees, and also will take preference for acceptance for events. As organisers we would like to have riders pre-enter it makes it easier for you as riders and us organisers. But we understand that this cannot always be done.

We are also well aware of the cost of living crisis, so therefore we have kept entries the same again so no increase to you as riders. This is the 3rd year where as promoters we have kept entries the same although some of our costs maybe increasing for 2023. So prizes may change slightly but the final budgets are being worked through.  

Although the Risk Assessment for the circuit allows fields of 80 riders in one race, we restrict the number of 4th cat riders to 60.

Those registering for the league will be issued with a race number of the season which they must keep and bring to all events!

Cash prizes will be given for the top 6 places in both the E/1/2/3 and  3rds races, prizes for the 4th category race will be energy products and for the last 3 years we have always had a weekly memento for the winner of the 4th cat race and will be doing again for 2023

An overall series will also run over the season. All riders finishing in the top 10 will be awarded points. Last year we had 10 cash prizes for those in the top placings at the end of the season and our sponsors provided extra prizes namely a set of road wheels for the top 3 along with trophies.

 

BC Ranking Points will awarded in both events.

It is crucial that you pin your race number in the correct position as photo finish equipment is used. This enable the organisers to pay prize money on the night.. 

Results/links to photo' and all up to date info regarding league positions will be posted up on the West Thames facebook page

3rd Category riders can choose their race, however if they move up to ride the E/1/2/3 they can not swap back unless there are extenuating circumstances .

The event is run as Regional C+ classification.

The 4th cat event is aimed at providing competitors a great facility to learn to ride in a bunch and build race skills and experience. 

NOTE: Secure lockers are provided within the club house for a refundable £2.00 deposit, please do not leave valuables within your vehicle. The organising team cannot be held responsible for any loss or damage to equipment left in such a way.


Race results and photos will be posted up on the following facebook page https://www.facebook.com/groups/387804418770592 as well as the results being sent to British Cycling 

The distances of the races will increase with the lighter evenings.

On Tuesdays the 4th Cat race starts prompt at 6.30 p.m. with the start time of the other 2 races  starting at 7:05 p.m. for the 1st 2 Tuesdays, and then will start at 7:15 p.m.
