Brighton Mitre series of evening crit races at Hove Park returning for 2019. 

This year's races will be held on 7th June, 21st June and 5th July So this means riders will be able to target the entire series over this period. Each evening has four races, with women's races included in the programme for all three alongside a youth category 14-16. 

The races are always enjoyable to both participate in and watch. The 1km circuit (situated at the northern end of Hove Park) is a tight affair that rewards shrewd, attacking riding and good bike-handling. The circuit features a strength-sapping power climb which has its say on the final placing. Please note that car parking is on the residential streets around Hove Park, and that Hove train station is nearby. The nearest toilets are in the southern part of Hove Park (away from the race circuit). 

Info for Riders

The course will be open for warm up laps until 30 minutes prior to the
first race but only inbetween races if time allows. There are plenty of side roads to the park if you need to warm up prior to your start time.
Please try to avoid congestion at the sign-on tent by signing up in race order.
If you are racing in the second race, please sign on once the first race is underway, similar for the 3rd race. 1st race is a combined Youth & Womens with the youth participants starting half a lap ahead of the womens.
There are toilets in the park but they close at dusk (around 8pm)
