Hi hope nobody minds me posting this! South Staffs road racing league is held on a Thursday evening throughout the summer, the calendar has just been agreed as below.
Its an excellent introduction to road racing as its a handicapped race on ability, with groups handicapped by time. The races are usually over a rolling road closure with national escort and police assistance (i Know as last year Jamie Jenkins broke away and almost collided with the rear of my escort vehicle)
As Wyre forest members we can't participate in the league or obtain the discount in entering the entire series, but we can turn up on an evening and participate and earn points towards your licences, preference is given to those clubs who marshall the events but in my experience very rarely are the events oversubscribed so you should always get a ride. The events at Enville and Huntington (just north of Wolverhampton) are particularly good courses with something for everyone. Cost is £15 (was last year) and racing lasts an 1hr - 1hr 20
I'll be attending a few of these and I know of a few others who've said they'll have a go, I look forward to seeing a few familiar faces!
