Due to heavy snow, we have had to cancel the race today.

After a track inspection and attempts to clear the snow, the decision was taken by the Manchester BMX Club Committee to cancel this round of the North Region Winter Series. The decision was backed by the North Region.

With the safety of riders a primary concern, the Committee decided that the snowfall and poor light would have made the track unsafe.

The possibility of rescheduling the race is being examined and an announcement will be made shortly.

The weather is making skis more appropriate than tyres at the moment so getting out and riding isn’t possible. The track will probably be closed for a while. We’ll keep you posted!

Saturday October 31st is more than just Halloween, it marks the start of our Winter Racing; The Saturday Slam Series! In Addition to the racing, we’ll be holding the presentation for our Summer Series.

Each of the Slam Series takes place on a Saturday, with further rounds on November 21st, December 12th, January 16th, February 13th and March 13th.
