Region 9 is proud to present this season’s Summer Race Series. 2024 was a great success with over 160 riders entering at least one of the events, and closely fought competition in all nine age categories throughout the series. This year, Chris Beales has very kindly stepped up to assist Julian Niles-Cunnington in planning, organising and overseeing the series. Many thanks to Chris. The series has been named the EDDIE COOK Series to bring parity to Eddie, who co-founded LVRC (BMCR) in 1986.
This year, due to the new Condor Cycles Spring Series throughout March and April, the number of summer races has been reduced to eight. The best six of a rider’s results will count towards the overall. STOP PRESS – FOLLOWING THE INCIDENT WITH THE EFGHI RACE AT HILLINGDON, THE EFGHI SERIES WILL BE THE BEST FIVE RESULTS FROM THE REMAINING SEVEN RACES.
Races are spread over four circuits in the South East including Hog Hill, Cyclopark, Hillingdon and Crystal Palace. These events include the Region 9 Championships (Cyclopark) and a One day 3 Stage race at Hog Hill.
