The Spring Chicken Road Race

Ellis

I'm entered into the Spring Chicken on the 9th of March, my first race of the season so will be an interesting tester!

Is anyone else doing it?

The way you are going I'll be surprised not to see you in top 6...

Is this a good first race to enter??

I know for a fact that it is full...96 entries for a field of 60...I withdrew my entry as I am also racing the day after and realised I wasn't ready for back to back races yet....
The 3/4 race would have been ideal for a first race but with popularity of racing getting bigger you have to enter as early as possible ...an alternative would be to try Hillingdon or Hog Hill if you like a big hill and also the Milton Keynes bowl as these are closed circuit (no traffic) and therefore can have larger fields.
They tend to be fast and furious but only last an hour....the 4th cat race at Hillingdon would be a good choice..
