Bike checks at road races

Bike checks will not generally be required at most races with the following exceptions:

1. At all TT events bikes will be inspected to ensure they conform to the UCI requirements as set out in C 01, Part III of the current UCI Rules. The important aspects of these are highlighted in the extract posted.

2. At all events, there will be a "roll-out" for all competitors in the Junior categories (U17; U15; U13) to ensure they meet the Gear rations required by the CCA in the current Companion Guide (sec. 2.2.023) which is also posted.

3. At any event on the calendar a general bike check may be required but, if it is, that will be stated on the Notice for that Race. It is the rider's responsibility to be aware of any such requirement and to ensure their bicycle is, first and foremost, safe and conforms to the general equipment rules (see the UCI guide).

For further information, please see the following two documents:
UCI Cycling Regulations - Chapter 3 - EQUIPMENT (pdf file - 1.3MB)
2006 Companion Guide - page 9 (pdf file - 100kb)

Minor changes to road categories in New Brunswick for 2007 race series

At the recent Velo NB organizers meeting it was decided to make some minor changes to the road racing categories for NB events this season. The reason for these changes was essentially to create better 'pack racing' and to avoid small categories from becoming basically 'individual time trials' or 'solo rides' after being dropped from an already small category. We feel this will 'raise the bar' for expert categories and better encourage sport categories.

General Road Info

If it weren't for the road bike, there wouldn't be any mountain bikes. And, if you want to get better on your mountain bike, you might want to hop on a road bike. If you're a hardcore roadie, you know what we're talking about here. Road riding is coming back bigger and stronger! Maybe the mountain bikers finally clued in that there's a certain kind of fitness that you can only get by road cycling. Or maybe they realized road cycling is pretty dam cool too (especially when you can't get into the woods until June because the entire world's alottment of snow was dumped on Nova Scotia this winter!). Check out a club or store to find out whose riding when and where. And, if you're dreaming of a yellow jersey, check out the 2004 Road Calendar. This year has the best variety of road racing that hasn't been seen in recent years. You have your pick of Time Trials, Criteriums, Road races, and even Stage races. But rather than picking and choosing which events to take part in, why not do them all! This is the year of the Road Bike in Nova Scotia.
