Friday evening RACENIGHT!!
This Friday 9th November we will be holding another of our youth racenights, this time with a cyclocross format, so we will be on the grass and every rider will get two races. These will still suit ALL of our youth riders, but with the added attraction of some riders from other clubs joining us for a few races, making it ideal entry level racing, and suitable for getting started with competitive events. Each event will be in age groups, so even our youngest will be able to take part, and the oldest will riders will be under 16 age group (racing separately to the younger ones)
Entry will be £4 on the day from 6.00pm with races to start at 6.30 and finish around 8.00 with prizes for the two event series on Friday 14th December. Hopefully our youngsters will all want to try these events, they seem to have a competitve streak even when not racing, so it should make a nice change to our usual format.
We could do with a few helpers on the night, so if you are able to help please let me know.
- Riders, the more the merrier for good racing. All youth riders welcome.
- Cakes, if you can bring one along please do, and ideally let me know beforehand
- Refreshments - two to help out with them
- Signing on - two people required
- Timekeepers - three people required
- Demo rider to show the riders round the course
- Helpers for setting up, could do with a couple of helpers who could ideally get there early
The details are on the British Cycling website, but as its entry on the night things are not too different to normal.

This will be at our usual venue The Embankment Athletic Track, Bishops Road, PE1 5BW.
Inter Club Wattbike Evening
With The Hereward League returning in 2019, what better way to promote the competition than with a winters evening of racing on the Wattbikes.
So in keeping with this Fenland Clarion will host the evening with our friends from Bourne Wheelers, Peterborough C.C. and Spalding C.C. The aim is for each club to enter a team of five riders to compete over a series of short races in a friendly competitive environment on Monday 27th November at Brookside Church on Gunthorpe Road PE4 7TG.
This will start at 7.00 and we'll be finished by 9.00.
The format will be teams of five riders, ideally of mixed ability, and if you want to ride for Fenland please let Malc know ASAP. Each rider will get at least 3 races with team and handicap events. The bikes take spd and Look Keo cleats, although trainers are fine and will be required as well anyway. The races will vary from around 500 metres to one mile. Entry will be per team at £25 to cover our venue costs and the odd prize.
Rollers and turbos are welcome if riders want to have the chance to do any sort of warm up.
Spectators are very welcome and tea & coffee will be available, so if you don't fancy riding you can always come down, socialise with your clubmates, and cheer your team to victory, or otherwise with club colours to be encouraged.
