Looking to do some road races when I move to Bristol at the start of July. Any online resources or info on locations and routes etc?
I've been racing Cat 3 in Ireland. Prefer hilly one lap races over short multiple laps. Don't know what the options are. Don't mind driving up to 2 hours away from Bristol or there abouts.

Cheers.

Couldn't class either as hilly but there are regular crits at Castle Combe Thursday evenings and Odd Down in Bath on Tuesdays.

check the BC website for events (Bristol is on Southern region).

edit: the summer cx series starts this week Wednesday evenings. Search for Western League cx.

If it is your thing, you may want to get accredited at Newport velodrome over the summer as there is a winter & spring track league on Tuesday nights. Very quick to get to from Bristol.

Thanks but CX and track don't appeal to me at all (got enough bikes as it is). I'll look into what mtb races I can do if there doesn't seem to be much road. Checking the BC website now in a minute.

Looks like I'd have no problem finding races if I liked crits 🙄 .
