CLUBMAN’S CLASS

This class is for non-competitive riders only. There will be timing when numbers allow as this will allow you to monitor your progress. This is a class for riders who just want to have a bit of fun, and are not serious about their racing. If the stewards and organisers notice any speed differentials, the faster rider will be moved to the respective formula class. Please note it is the responsibility of the passing rider to do so safely. You will be penalised if unsafe passing is reported.
