TT Season Is here Updated 1/4/16

Mercia CC

It’s that time of the year again where its getting light for longer and you get back from a ride and you can still feel you fingers and toes. Which mean one thing its TT season again. So gets those bikes dusted off those shorts out and get ready to put those numbers on your back. Tuesday the 29th it all kicks off.  Time to head to your pain cave and head down against the clock.

This weeks TT Starts at 7pm with sign on at Mercia HQ which can be found HERE Please sign on no later than 20mins before the start time.

Please take your time to read below as the are some things you need to make yourself a wear of the following.

 

Please do not make a U turn when you have finished – stop on the left and make sure it is safe to do so before carefully turning round.

Do not stop at the finish time keepers – no times will be given.

 

Timekeeping is complicated on our course, when,  in the 10 a competitor passes the finish 3 times, Riders congregating around the time keepers add to the difficulty.

The time keepers is on the right hand side at the finish – your number must be visible from the right but more importantly every rider is required to call their number as they finish.

Remember – keep the time keepers and the marshals happy – without them there will be no events to ride!

All events for 2016 will be held on the Anslow Course and please note that mid-season events have a 7.30 start time
