Race Rounds

As you’ve come to expect, our races take place on familiar grippy Northern roads with summit or hill top finishes. Weather is almost always a factor too. Proper racing on proper courses.

The Men’s races will take place in the morning and the Women’s races in the afternoon of each race day.

Team Series

Both Men’s and Women’s Teams will be made up of the following:

Minimum 3 riders / maximum 5 men - 7 women (first 3 to count)
