KennyS Posted February 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 If you ride on a day licence it would defeat the point of the exercise, which is about development, gaining experience, gaining BC points and progressing through the categories Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartm Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 I take it the 60 odd places will go pretty quickly? I don't know if I'll have sufficiently recovered from my injuries (broken collarbone) or even have a decent bike ( current bike is a write-off) by the time the first race comes around.

Guest GEORGE DONNELLY Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 I take it the 60 odd places will go pretty quickly? I don't know if I'll have sufficiently recovered from my injuries (broken collarbone) or even have a decent bike ( current bike is a write-off) by the time the first race comes around. Could always enter & withdraw if not up to it. There will surely be reserve riders keen to replace you if you pull out. If you don't make it you could join me as a podium dolly in the JWCC Race Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyS Posted February 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 The fields will be selected after the respective closing dates so no harm in entering and then advising Organiser nearer the time if you can't ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
