Listen to the Bristol Radio interview with Ali Vowles which took place at 6.21am on Sat 5 March, on BBC iPlayer at
The previous event organiser, Richard Jarrold, is still actively involved in this years event and responsible for arranging sponsors, marshals and motorcycle outriders, etc., so please stay in touch with him as you have done in previous years.
The race has been extremely popular this year and we received more than 120 entries, so sincere apologies to those of you that we had to return entries to.
The race programme is now available to download from the following link. Severn Bridge RR Programme The hardcopy programme has also been posted on 1st March to all riders or their team manager.
There is one rider change which means the hardcopy programme is incorrect and the download is correct. Rider 15 is Jon Tiernan-Locke (Rapha-Condor-Sharpe). Also reserves are reduced to 14.
The race HQ is at Olveston Sports and Social Club, Alveston Road, Old Down, Olveston, South Gloucestershire, formerly called the Queen Alexandra Memorial Pavilion, Old Down. The best postcode to use for your SatNav is BS32 4PA (but not perfect), however you will find it at the intersection of Old Down Hill, Foxholes Lane and Alveston Road. The race starts at 11.00am.
There is a prize fund of £1100 with sponsorship from Saddleback, Argos Racing Cycles, Blast Bikes, Avon Valley Cyclery, Mud Dock, Printech, Signboard and Academy Eyewear.
