Women's Series Round 3

Supported by Light House architecture and science

Light House architecture and science

The Summer Women's Series is an 3-part series to provide a platform for women to race against other women. As a club, we realise that there are complexities surrounding female participation and the intention of this series is to encourage more of the talented women we have here in Canberra to race & participate. With varying feedback over the years, we recognise that there are benefits to mixing the grades and separating them.

We will run four grades during each Women's round: Women's A & B, and Women's C & D.

Women's Series Registration

To participate in the Women's series just register and select the normal open grade you would race. You will be entered into that grade like normal, and automatically entered into the Women's Series race.

Riders can then choose to race the normal round, the women's series race, or both! All for the same entry fee. Just register, show up with your Season Number correctly attached, and we'll do the rest.

Prizemoney*

More than $5,000 in cash and prizes across the grades thanks to our sponsors and supporters.
