Entry Form for BSCA Yorkshire Roller Competition Sunday 29th March 2015 Richard Dunn Sports Centre

Here is the entry form for this event to be held at Richard Dunn Sports Centre.

This is a great event for young riders to race on indoor rollers. With the bike supported on a box for Under 7,9 and 11 year olds ( all primary school pupils) anyone one under 11 on the 1st September 2014 can have a go without any prior training on rollers. Older children are not supported for the Under 13/15 and Over 15's categories so it is advisable that they practice riding on free rollers before they race.

Please note there are gear restrictions applying.  A gear restriction means that children in a certain age group have a maximum gear they can use on their bike to make it fair. This is measured by a single full crank revolution. Ask your local coaches for advice on how to restrict gears (Simply altering the movement of the gears by use of a screwdriver) Please ensure you have checked and restricted the gears if required before attending the competition.

Age Categories and Gear restrictions for 2014/2015

British Schools Cycling Association operates age categories in school years. Also we have gear restrictions to ensure all riders have a level playing field and can't use too hard a gear that could damage their legs as they grow.Advice on how to restrict gears is available on the internet.

British Cycling does the same but their age categories are different.
