Butterfields Criterium

NORWOOD CC SUPER SERIES 2020
TDU WEEK - SUNDAY / MONDAY / TUESDAY
JUNIOR / WOMENS / MENS GRADED CRITERIUM

This will be one of our biggest criterium events of the year. With Norwood CC putting $1000 on the line for the win in Mens and Womens A grade. The hitters will be out fighting for the $1K up for the win. The graded racing is as good as it gets across the grades, with talent flocking in from all over Australia and a few fly ins from over seas. Great spectating over Victoria Park from the heritage grandstand area, with beats and beverages on offer from our mates aBloc beer. Vic park is 2km from the CBD, a short ride, or ample car parking off Fullarton Rd or Wakefield Rd make access a pinch. Come down and support club racing, blooding in the next potential champions of the sport.

This event is part of a three race series, NCC SS 2020 run during the TDU to give local and tourist graded riders an opportunity to race while the big race is in town. We are proud to offer Juniors, Womens and Mens grades for the series which are our most competitive events of the year. For details on the the other two events see links below:
