Proper Northern Road Race Series

 

In 2022, Cold Dark North brings you a series of three National B (E123) road races which we’re calling the Proper Northern Road Race Series. The Series is for teams and individuals. There will be separate Men's and Women's races. Equal prize money will be awarded to both.

 

Race Rounds

 

As you’ve come to expect, our races take place on familiar grippy Northern roads with summit or hill top finishes. Weather is almost always a factor too. Proper racing on proper courses.

Teams and Individuals will be informed whether their entries have been successful on close of entries . Preference will be given to Teams entering all three Rounds of the Series.

 

We will accept entries from “composite teams” made up of individuals. We’ll need a main point of contact (e.g. team manager, DS or other designated person).
