Children's Races

Saturday mornings in the main ring always starts with traditional children's races

"Its the best show, its a lot of fun, with plenty to do for everyone, I would recommend it to everybody"

Starting at 9am in the Main Ring on Saturday - for all Primary & Pre-school children

The children’s cycling activities have been changed, do have a look and take part.

Get Set will be a number of smaller activities, you can try one or all of them.
The cycling races will be shorter, 80m, the same as the running.

Finally, there will be a bike park, just bring a lock, so you can leave your bike before and after the race.
( Bikes are parked at the owner’s risk)
