Thursday evening TT

Seacroft Wheelers organise and participate in the Tadcaster Evening League in conjunction with CycleSense, Yorkshire Road Club, Leeds Westfield CC, Valley Striders, Wetherby Wheelers and AlbaRosa CC. The league is sponsored by local bike shop CycleSense of Tadcaster and is run every Thursday evening from 2nd of May to the 8th of August on courses in the Tadcaster, Wetherby & Fairburn areas with time trial events from 10 to 25 miles. Entry is restricted to first and second claim members of the above clubs and a generous prize list is competed for by all categories over the season long competition.

Promoted under Cycling Time Trials regulations the Evening League provides an ideal introduction to cycle racing for newcomers to the sport.

Seacroft Wheelers stage a number of evening Club Events ourselves prior to and following the CycleSense League programme. All are welcome to ride. (See “Club evening time trials” tab at the top of this page).

Evening League Results can be found on the CycleSense website, usually by the next evening following each event. Some of the results also get posted on our facebook group .

New to Time Trialling?

If you have not ridden a time trial before and would like to have a go then the evening league or the club evening time trials are ideal for you to try, to see if you like it.

There will be a new prize in 2019 for the fastest man and fastest woman for riders on road bikes . In order to qualify for these prizes you must not have

• time trial bars
• time trial helmets
• disc wheels

Please arrive and be ready to pay and collect your number. There is a maximum of 40 riders and it’s on a first come first served basis. Please note the very latest signing on time will be no later than 15 minutes before the race start time. This helps organisers plan better but more importantly gives you the chance to warm up. Once you have collected your number this needs to be displayed on your back towards the left hand side. All riders are pushed off at one minute intervals and given a time for the distance rode. It is helpful for the marshals if you shout out your number as you cross the finish line.

Want to improve your times?

Whether you are new to time trialling or would just like to improve your times, Seacroft Wheelers have a qualified coach, Mike Farthing, who organises a variety of training sessions throughout the year.
Mike is available to offer extra coaching sessions and advice if required for all Seacroft club members.
For more information on any of the activities contact Mike on: coaching@seacroftwheelers.co.uk

CYCLESENSE TADCASTER LEAGUE 2019

The support of Cyclesense, Tadcaster, is gratefully acknowledged. Please support them…
See the CycleSense Website for weekly results.

Below are details of courses, distances, where the headquarters will be and who is the organising club. Please note details for 2019 are yet to be confirmed but it is hoped these can be published in January 2019.

In the past many riders have been disappointed when races have had to be cancelled where it is found that there are roadworks on the course, or the course has recently been gritted making it dangerous for riders to race. Therefore from 2018 we have submitted police forms for a reserve course in readiness for if this happens. However, we may not know about this immediately and the course could then be changed up to the day before the event.

Club Championship

The club championship is within the CycleSense Evening League.  The club championship is for a 10, 15 and 25 mile time trial.  There is a gold, silver, and bronze medal for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd male and female first claim member of Seacroft Wheelers. The medals will be presented at the annual club presentation night.  For the dates of the club championship nights there is a “S” in the notes column on the table below.
