Having a look at the racing licences.

Does anyone find paying the extra for the Gold over Silver racing licences worthwhile? I intend to compete in at least 10 races this year, most likely more, will the personal accident insurance be worthwhile?

Thanks for any help.

Edit: Sorry, I meant Silver Vs Gold!

    Edited to correct the mistake!

    As well as Gold Vs Silver how can I tell whether I require a full or provisinal race licence for the events I want to enter?

    I intend to ride in SERRL races and some others.

    Thanks for any help

    You'll need Silver Membership and a Race License to compete in most BC affiliated events. The provisional license only provides access to a limited number of Cat 4 events.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    No it allows access to an unlimited number of regional races on payment of the day licence fee. Silver licence alone reduces the day licence fee to 0 or 5 depending on the event.
