Disclaimer - Please note these results are 'best I can do' as I've had to work from finish line notes rather than the official results sheets - if there are any errors please accept my apologies and we'll be happy to correct them.  
BC does have the correct results set.

We'd love to provide complete results sets for all riders with chip timing but this simply wasn't possible within this years budget - if you'd like to help out and sponsor this aspect next year we'd love to hear from you!


THANK YOU and SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!

What is Criterium Bike Racing?

 

 

 A Criterium bike race is essentially racing around a small, (1 -2km) circuit usually within the confines of a town centre. Each race is usually no longer that 1 hr plus one lap. Punctuated throughout the hour are “Sprint Laps” in which riders sprint to cross the start finish line first, each sprint carries a price normally donated by a local business, in France and Belgium, the home of this style of racing sprint prices have been known to include cars, white goods, baskets of fruit and veg or even the riders weight in wine or beer!

 This type of racing is very attractive to spectators as on a small circuit they get to see the riders in very close proximity and repeatedly over the duration of the race, the addition of sprint laps, and the very high speeds around tight corners makes for lots of thrills and seldom a dull moment, this is undoubtedly the most accessible form of bike racing available.
