Aims of the series
|
The aims of the Midlands Women’s Time Trial Series are:
- To create more opportunities for women cyclists in the Midlands to race against each other in local time trials.
- To provide a season-long competition for women taking part in time trials.
- To provide women cyclists in the Midlands with opportunities to meet informally, to make contacts and to initiate friendships.
We hope that the Series will appeal to:
- Novices - who can try out cycle racing with little pressure or formality. No prior experience is needed.
- Experienced riders - who all too often find themselves competing against only men or very few other women.
- Triathletes - who can use the events for training, to gauge their cycling fitness or to practise pacing themselves for the bike leg in a triathlon.
