We will be running multiple grades for men, women and juniors across the morning. All CA racing members from all clubs are welcome to enter all races and contest the placings, the first NCC member in each championship race will win the club championship.

Norwood Cycling Club Champion's - Win free NCC Criterium events for the coming season

For new racers who have not held a licence before, Norwood Cycling Club can offer a two month “Race Starter Kit” membership. This membership will allow you to try out racing club level events. See more information below.

Thanks to Cervélo Australia you can win a S5 or R5 frame set in Sunweb livery, just by entering NCC summer criteriums.

All you have to do is enter a minimum of 5 NCC Summer Criteriums on EntryBoss to be eligible to win. Each race is a entry to win, the more you race the better your chances of winning! A random draw for a frame set will be conducted at the NCC Criterium Championship event. This is an amazing prize and we thank Cevelo AUS for their generosity and passion for club cycling.

More Information:

Grading

Senior Championships are open to Men and Women graded in A grade only.

Please check what grade you have been placed in by the handicapper via the "View startlist" button prior to the event starting. The handicapper reserves the right to handicap riders as they see fit. It is the responsibility of the rider to review the published start list. Please enter relevant information for the handicapper when you nominate. The earlier you nominate, the earlier you get handicapped. Changing of grades on the day is not permitted. Only the Handicapper or the Chief Commissaire may regrade a rider on the day.
Please do not request grade changes to our volunteers at the Sign-on desk

Fixed Numbers

We will continue to be using the fixed number system rolled out by CSA over their winter crits. Got questions? See the FAQ's below: https://cycling.org.au/sa/fixed-numbers-faq

New Riders

Are you new to racing? Then why not try Cycling Australia's Starter pack, to try racing before committing to a full license, see link below. Not quite sure which grade you are or have questions about racing please contact NCC on facebook messenger. If its your first race recommend arriving at sign on at least 45min prior to your race starting, to sign on, have your paper work with proof of license. Leave time to pin on numbers, zip tie on timing transponder and warm up / have a nervous toilet break!

If you have never raced a criterium before and not confident in your bunch riding skills, we recommended you attend a Cycling SA criterium training session. See Cycling SA website, or the Cycling SA facebook pages for more details.
