About the event
The evenings are designed to be inclusive but also hard for everyone attending. We have 3 set group leaders in place.
Max Hereward will support the fastest group
Francis Woodcock will support group two
Simon Diggins will support group three
Sessions will be set by Joe Cadwallader and may change due to weather conditions or numbers on the night.
Groups will be ability based and age is not a barrier to move up or down groups, the idea is that we all learn from each other and also have some structure to follow.
The northwest is really missing a inclusive weekly session and we hope this will encourage more engagement.
We have committed to 4 weeks with a review after week 2, after feedback we will then decide how best to move forward over the rest of the winter.
Any money made will be put back into support of national racing events in the region and the continued support of young riders from the region.
Last year we supported
- Oulton park youth National
- National junior TT male / female
- National junior road race male / female
- Northwest youth tour
- Final round of the national junior series
All major chances to race in our own region in 5 different locations.
