Weekly Racing
Here is the breakdown of our normal weekly racing activities. Entry fees for the events are $10 for all of our Tuesday night racing and $15 for our Wednesday night racing. Wednesday nights racing will include one prize for one race per category for the winner of the chosen race. All of our weekly race nights kick off at 7pm with an organised warm-up paceline of 20laps per category. Racing will begin once all of the warm-ups are completed(roughly 7:30pm).
