the next session is on Sunday 25 May and we hope to have an even larger attendance this time round. we will also be catering for these age categories in the winter series so these training sessions will be ideal for the youngsters to learn the craft of racing in safe conditions.

btw - we have an ambulance in attendance. :thumbup:

yes , the 25th is open to all riders irrespective of age. we don't time the racing as that would be an financial burden on the youngsters. we hire the facility until 12noon. no entry fee is charged.

 

wrt the wpca winter series - all but 2 of the event applications have been submitted and we have avoided the Paarl roads where there are roadworks which impacted on the proposed autumn series.
