The Salt Ayre Spring Saturday Series starts 10 March 2012 and the Tuesday evening Vanilla Bikes Salt Ayre League starts 10 April 2012.
The Vanilla Bikes Salt Ayre League will be run by Salt Ayre Cycling Association and run similar to 2011 with 20 events starting on Tuesday 10th April.
This League, again sponsored by Vanilla Bikes will be for 2/3/4 cat men, women and juniors with youth races starting on 8th May.
Its EOL only, £10 for men, £5 for women and juniors.
An innovation for 2012 is that each week’s winner will receive a prize in addition to the League prizes awarded at the end of the season.
We also now have a Spring Series on Saturdays 10, 17, 24 and 31 March at 13.30.

Both races are open to E/1/2/3/4/J cats, the Womens race will be 45 mins + 5 laps and Mens 1 hour + 5 laps.
The Mens Series already has sponsorship from Wallis Cycles and a Womens Series sponsors will be announced soon.
The Vanilla Bikes Salt Ayre League Finale on 23rd August will be run as a Regional C+ open to E/1/2/3/4 categories with a prize from Vanilla Bikes.com. It is not a counting event to the League but will be immediately followed by the League Prize Presentation.
