Update on racing

You may have seen that British Cycling have recently extended their suspension of Regional racing until 1 August, and CTT have announced that it may be possible to resume club time trials from 6 July and open events from 18 July.
This update is to let you know that BMCR has no plans to resume racing at present. We believe that bunch racing will not be possible for some time yet. However, we think that it will be possible to resume individual time trials before road races. Once it becomes clear what the timescale for resuming time trials is, we will ask organisers to consider putting on some road bike time trials, on ‘sporting’ courses away from dual carriageways, or circuits.  Virtual races on Zwift are also providing an enjoyable alternative for many members.
We will continue to monitor the situation closely and as soon as there is a significant change we will give a further update. We are also sharing information and plans with TLI Cycling, whose position is very similar to ours.
