Retro bike racing...

[malvernman]

I am going to set up a time trial event for vintage and veteran bikes next summer, I have got some interest from a large group on facebook ... We have a likely venue in the West Midlands... closed road 1.5km .. with a bar...

The plan would be to have lots of different categories so shoppers, choppers to 753 super bikes...

Anyone interested?

It'll cost me a bit of cash and time to set it up so need numbers to attend.. Most likely in May if circuit is free one weekend.

Cheers, Steve.

When I get a date sorted that is free for the circuit I will post it on here... the track is pretty cheap to hire fortunately... I would need about 20 people paying a couple of quid to race.. I think we have a sponsor for to cover insurances.

Sounds like fun if only to watch from the bar. Or Frank on road tyres.

Where were you thinking of?

Under which governing body?

Under which governing body?

The BCF obviously. As they're now not called that, we old timers can have our own!
Or how about the UCI? Union of Cyclists Independent

Period kit , to a degree , would be good too. I don't want to see History Man in baggy woollen shorts.

I like the look of the one with the cars in it.
