Race Information

John Burgess Memorial Handicap

Proudly presented by Seymour Broadford Cycling Club

Welcome to the John Burgess Memorial Handicap.

This is one of our major Trophy races in the SBCC racing calendar in honour of John Burgess who was a much-loved member of the club.

This year we have moved the race to Highlands Rd. A bit more climbing and a bit harder to get your hands on the trophy. As always we thank the Burgess family for allowing us to continue to use the family business, Burgess Signs, as our club rooms, as per John's best wishes.

Presentations and drinks at Burgess Signs after the race.

Who will get their name on the John Burgess Memorial Trophy this year?
