...though it doesn't look complete yet (ours isn't on it, for a start). No ERRRL Thursday nights yet, and a few regulars missing. Sadly the Hetton circuit races seem to have gone from Regional C+ to Regional C (ie nil points). Seem to be more Regional A's and fewer Regional B's.

..and news of the Boroughbridge TLI series:-

"The first race is on Tuesday 24th April, 7pm. Same cicuits as this year, same venue, Coronation Hall. It will be a different format next year tho. It will consist of 1 series of 8 races, fortnightly. 5 races to count with 1 compulsory marshall duty, by the rider or someone competent to do it for the rider, with full points for marshalling as before. The first 2 races will start at 7pm and the following 6 will kick off at 7-30pm, as we had a few comments from riders saying they sometimes had problems getting there for 7pm.
Have got a sponsor in Chevin Cycles. They actually approached us at the last race and asked if they could sponsor us. They are going to provide the first 3 prizes for every race, and are hoping to come up with other stuff as well."

So, if you're thinking of having a crack at racing next year, get them in your diary. I'm sure there'll be a fair few of the regulars out too - I bet Steve'll be defending this year's victory for a start!

..but no dates yet for vets! The LVRC race calendar "should be online by the end of the month" according to their website fella, so all us old codgers will have to wait a few more weeks before filling our diaries. Will post a message here when it's up.
