Time Trials 2020

Regrettably all Time Trials are cancelled until further notice.

Our time trial league is run in conjunction with Clifton Cycling Club.  It is a series of 18 events run on Thursday and Tuesday evenings at 7:30pm. Clifton Cycling Club organise the majority of the events as a club league under the rules and regulations of the CTT.

There are three new courses this year one hilly from Crayke to Yearsley and the other two on the A168 near Boroughbridge.

YCW organise two flat 10m events in Wheldrake, plus a further four events in August that are not included in the league.  British Cycling members of YCW are welcome to take part at all the events, as are members of  Clifton Cycling Club, York Triathlon and Malton Wheelers.  You simply turn up, put your name on the starting list and pay your £5.

There are a few rules we ask you to follow.  No drafting.  Obey the rules of the road - marshalls are only there to point you in the right direction.  Finally, save one last breath to SHOUT out your number as you cross the finish line - this greatly helps the timekeepers.

*** New CTT regulation - you will not be able to start without a working red rear light ***

What can you expect?

  • Marshalls at every junction
  • Timekeepers
  • Pusher offs
  • Riders go off at 1m intervals - it's you against the clock

NEW for 2020. NEW for 2020. This course starts south of Crayke at the junction with the Stillington road. There is a large layby which, if not full of gravel, is a great place to park. The first couple of km is a long drag up into Crayke followed by a fast downhill section for a km but then the uphill stuff starts again. Another long drag to brandsby and then Yearsley Bank which is 70m of climbing at 9%, ouch. Then flat through Yearsley and then super fast descent down Milking Hill. At the bottom of the descent there is a ford which is normally dry, but after a lot of rain can be quite deep. The rest is gently rolling until you get to the final climb into Crayke which is sharp and steep.

Volunteering

We need people to organise events, time keep and help out on the night with marshalling, pushing off etc. It's not too early to volunteer - the events can't go ahead without you! Volunteer organisers will receive a £25 donation for each event organised. The timekeepers will receive a donation of £10 per event. Volunteers who have not officiated and who may be apprehensive will be supported by experienced organisers, marshals etc., who will act as "buddys". Getting involved is a great way to support the Club.

If you are willing to organise or assist at an event, please contact the shop or Clifton Cycling Club.
