Series Rules

The races are insured by British Cycling and run under the BC Mountain Bike rules. Series points will be awarded to the top 10 finishers in each category, 10 points for first, 9 for second and so on. At the end of the series, if two riders are tied for first place, the rider with the heaviest and most unsuitable bike will be deemed to be the series winner. Riders MUST return their number boards at the end of each race, on pain of being pursued relentlessly by an angry midget, as pictured (picture not actual size).

Marshalling & First Aid

We will be looking for help with marshalls and first aiders. Any rider who can help marshall at one of the races (or provide a marshall) will be credited with 10 series points. Will also pay £10 expenses or free entry at another race in the series to riders marshalling at one event. £20 expenses to first aiders. Contact helenmfindlay@yahoo.co.uk or stevendeas@hotmail.co.uk if you can help. Marshalls must be aged 16 or over.
