Upcoming Racing

Round 3 of Sutton Super Series on Saturday 29 June from 1330 AEST

Our next road race is round three of the club’s Super Sutton Series in 2024 on Saturday 29th June.

Event is at the Sutton Road Training Centre:
Time Grade Duration
1330 C/D 40mins plus one lap
1420 E/F/G 30mins plus one lap
1500 A/B 50mins plus one lap

The race is a graded scratch event in road grades in an anti-clockwise direction.

Race director Craig Lindenmayer, marshal Terry Danaher, van driver Owain Tilley, first aid Matt Sainsbery

Cost is $10, to register look up the event at https://rms.crmcc.org.au/calendar?5019054 .
Registration cut-off is 9pm on Friday 28 June.

Members must wear their CRMCC assigned race number to race.

Late registrations will be assessed by Race.committee@crmcc.org.au and if allowed, a late fee of $10 will be applied.
If you are unregistered and show up to the start, you must convince a committee member (not the Race Director) of your club member financial status for insurance purposes, before being allowed to participate.

Note the current long range forecast is for the possibility of showers on Saturday. For this race the club will proceed without a minimum rider number requirement unlike in other road events. In the extreme event of very poor weather that threatens riders’ safety, and where the committee feels that it cannot safely conduct the race, we will announce the race’s cancellation by Saturday 9am.
