With the clocks about to spring forward, we'll soon have that vital hour of extra daylight, signalling the start of the Searletech Summer Series on Tuesday nights!

Before Christmas, we start with a mixture of graded and handicap races every Tuesday evening from October 22nd, to build our racing legs and fitness, with a Christmas novelty race on December 17th winding up the spring session.  Formats, start times and courses have now been uploaded on our calendar.

After the Christmas recess, we will start our Searletech Summer Points Series; graded races with points accumulating each week.  The points series starts on Tuesday January 21st, with the season finale on Tuesday March 25th.  The overall Summer Series trophy is a prestigious (giant!) trophy, with minor trophies for each grade too. 

We're delighted to welcome Searletech back for another seasons as sponsor of the series, bringing along prizes for placegetters in each night's races.  See Mike for all your needs to make your bike go faster and fit you like a glove https://www.searletech.co.nz/ or call Mike on 027 226 4599.  Flash your KCC membership card to receive 10% of all Mike's parts and labour too.

Not a "racer"?  Not in shape?  New to racing?  Everyone is welcome.  We run grades A to E and this is a great way to learn skills, build fitness and develop as a rider.  More experienced riders are happy to pass on advice and skills, in a friendly atmosphere.  There is no age limit, all you need is a road bike, a helmet and $10 if you're not a member (all races are free to current KCC members).
