Anyone know if you need a race licence for these races (cat 4), getting no response from organisers? :shock:
Cheers

    Assuming the events are normal classification, then I would guess you can ride on a day licence, same as anywhere else. However, if you place, you won't score ranking points unless you have a full licence.

    Thanks Imposter, are these generally avaliable on the day at the event?

    I've booked up already on Rider HQ, just want to get the race licence on the day.
    Cheers.

    Worth emailing Imperial but I'm sure you're fine on a day licence.

    If you aren't a member of BC then a day license will cost you £10, if you are a bronze member it's £5. Silver/gold member then it's free.

    if you do more than two races this year it will be cheaper to buy a provisional licence before the event. If you think you will score points as previously stated, get a full licence for them to be counted.

    Oh yes almost time for the yearly extortionate BC race tax.

    Did my first race yesterday. Came last, really wasn't expecting the pace to be as high for so long. Was out of my depth but have experienced it now and have a good target going forward.
