If you are a paid up first claim member of the club on the day of the event the entry fee will be paid on your behalf.
(“first claim” just means you are a regular member and Seacroft Wheelers is your main/only club, “second claim” means you are first claim at another club)
For the Youth and Junior second claim members that ride the 2up, 4up and hill climb in a Seacroft Wheelers jersey they will also qualify for the free entry.
(Note- part of each entrance fee comprises a levy paid by the organising club per rider, to the relevant governing body Cycling Time Trials Association, British Cycling etc which goes towards things like liability insurance for that event, administration and developing the sport).
