Closed Circuit Road Racing
Members may wish to note that there is a series of closed circuit races which are held on Thursday nights at Castle Combe Race Circuit during the summer. These are not Chippenham and District Wheelers events. Details can be found on the British Cycling website at:
http://www.britishcycling.org.uk/

Any news stories on racing for publication on the web site are welcome, please send these to committee@chippenhamwheelers.org.
Club Evening Time Trial Events
The Club runs Time Trials on Wednesday evenings throughout the summer. The diary shows what course is being ridden, the distance, the registration time and the start time. (Diary entries should be opened for full details as the headline detail does not show the changing registration time throughout the season.)
Entry fees for Club Evening Time Trials are:
- Adult Members and Adult Second Claim Members – £4
- Adult Non Members – £5
- Youth/Juvenile Members – No fee
- Youth / Juvenile Second Claim and Non Members – £3 (to cover CTT levy)
Note a CTT £3 levy is paid for all riders entering an event. The onus is on riders to declare their correct status / affiliation on entering the event as the officials do not necessarily know all entrants or have knowledge of changes in status.
Rule Change: From 1 January 2020 all riders must have a working rear light fitted at the start of an event and it must be on at the start. This is for club and open events.
Open Events
Guidance on entering Open Events can be found on the CTT Website at:

Guidance on arranging Open Events can be found on the Western District Website at:
http://www.westdc.co.uk/ on the “Info” tab, or at the CTT Website at: http://organisers.cyclingtimetrials.org.uk/
Most events now accept Internet Entries. Note that entries typically close at mid-night on the published closing date which is usually the Tuesday a fortnight before the event. Details are in the CTT Handbook and on the CTT Website.
