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. 
• 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: 

There are 3 categories for this race:

1. Under 16's Fun,
2. Over 16's Fun
3. Over 16's team entry. If you choose to enter the 'team entry' the below information will apply. 

Team entry information

• All riders will do a track walk and 1 hour practise session. 
• After Practise, riders will do 1 timed seeding run. This run will determine the teams for timed runs. Teams will be organised after the seeding run by pairing the fastest time with the slowest time, then second fastest with second slowest and so on.
• There will then be another timed run for all riders. Times from these runs will be added together to give a total team time. 
• There will be podium places for the fastest 3 teams including prizes. 

Tickets are strictly limited to 60 places and must be purchased in advance through British Cycling.

Each race entry includes a complimentary hot dog at the end of the day.
