Ilton's back and tougher than ever, with the race of truth!

Join us, in welcoming back racing at Merryfield airfield with a bang. With a double day of events, the Royal Navy Cycling team have now put on a Time trial for the morning of the inaugural ‘Royal Navy Cup p/b SWRRWG’. https://www.britishcycling.org.uk/events/details/297012/Royal-Navy-Cup-pb-SWRRWG

Riders will be welcomed to race a 10-mile (16km) time trial around the pancake replicating circuit; open to all riders and categories, from TT bikes to road bike, everyone is welcome!

Please note. This race is on the morning before the Nat B event on the same circuit, maybe have a race against the clock to configure yourself with the course before the race kicks off at 1100.

First rider off at 0830, 60 riders max get your entry in now to avoid disappointment!

Info for Riders

First rider off at 0901, timing chips will be issued for accurate data. 

RNAS Merryfield is a working military airfield. 

Helicopters don't like Gel and food Wrappers - the repair bills are costly. 

Due to this, anyone dropping ANY litter on site will be DQ’d and banned from future events. 

Due to being on a Military site - Cameras of any sort will not be allowed On-Bike. This will be checked at the start. 

You should all have read the ride safe manual by now - please take note of it. 

There will be Portaloos on site - USE THEM. Anyone found using an alternative will be DQ’d and banned from future events. 

Sadly we can’t accept any under 18’s on site as competitors. 

This Event will also not allow on board cameras - Commissaries will be checking pre race. This is due to the event being on MOD property.
