Summer MTB racing in London since 1993 – 24 years young!
Beastway rides again at Hog Hill in London with two new Saturday events around the regular Wednesday evening series. There are NINE races in the series and the last round will be the decider, with your SEVEN best results to count.
Beastway is delighted to welcome its new series title sponsor Tradervan.co.uk. They source and finance vans throughout the UK. Hackney GT clothing remains a series sponsor and prime mover in the series. The regular crew of Russ Jones, Bruce Mackie, Michael Humphreys, Drew Jones, Noah Smith, Jarvis Goodyear of Epping Forest MTB, plus many volunteers and the Lee Valley Youth CC run the series with your offers of help always welcome.
You can start by laying your money down to keep finances in the black right through the series. Enter the whole series in advance by 1 April and save up to £59. We’ll waive the £3 number board charge for full series entrants. Series entry and payment from here;- https://www.britishcycling.org.uk/events/
Please come along to our Coursebashing Day from noon on Saturday 2 April. Bring gloves, workwear and your favourite bushwhacking tools. The brambles don’t care what you wear.
