In Cycling Time Trials safety is paramount: “When time trial courses are designed, safety is a major consideration. However, a competitor’s safety remains entirely his or her own responsibility. Events are held on open roads, and competitors must obey the relevant laws and the Highway Code before, during and after a race. Competitors must avoid creating situations that are unsafe for other road users.”
In the event of a cancellation communications will be posted on the Wokingham Cycling Club website; on the public and members Facebook page; sent by e-mail to all entrants.
The route is officially called HCC234. The route is not signed, so we would advise memorising or loading it on your GPS device.
You can also download the route from the CTT webpage and see the course records, HERE
There will be competitions held for each individual event and across the series. All competitions, with the exception of most improved rider, will be split based into female and male. Transgender athletes are welcome as per the CTT Transgender Policy:

Each Time Trial will have a winner based on the shortest elapsed time in the Merckx and Aero categories by gender.
There are two series competitions.
This will be measured as the improvement between the first and subsequent times of a rider of either gender in the same category.
*The Time Trial team reserve the right to review and exclude times to remove the effect of any ‘mechanicals’ such as punctures.
These will be the rider with the fastest time, by category and gender.
