Getting the communication flowing to the right direction will help us to maintain the relationship with College Sport that facilitates the racing and will enable you to get the right info faster.
ASC (Auckland School Cycling) is a Cycling New Zealand affiliated club. In the last few years there has been a call from riders, coaches and parents for more racing and ASC have listened. ASC have been able to access the Pukekohe track following the College Sport TTTs to run more racing. It is important to note the organisations are separate from each other. The racing we run as a CNZ Club is not connected to College Sport Auckland. You do see us at College Sport Events as we help them to deliver their Race Programme. What happens after TTTs is all ASC (and the volunteers who help us!).
You can help support ASC by becoming a member of Cycling New Zealand and joining ASC. For $22.50 you can take out a CNZ Sport license which covers you for all the racing ASC provides and there are zero club fees when you choose Auckland School Cycling as your club. You can sign up or renew your CNZ membership at: https://ccnbikes.com/#!/memberships/cycling-new-zealand-2025-annual-licence-membership. Please show your support for ASC by joining the club and racing our races!
Our main focus is around fun racing where riders can select the grade appropriate for their level and maximise enjoyment, develop race craft and improve fitness. Participation is the most important thing for us and we like low technology racing (pin on a number and get going!).
We will always aim to provide racing results out to about 10th place but use manual spotters to record this.
(The same) points on every lap (5/3/2/1 for 1st/2nd/3rd/4th).
Most points wins.
A Grade - 30 minutes + 1 lap
B Grade - 30 minutes + 1 lap
C Grade - 20 minutes + 1 lap
D Grade/Novice - 20 minutes + 1 lap
(race lengths are subject to change on the day based on start times and other factors)
Results will be posted up to the ASC FB Page: https://www.facebook.com/aucklandschoolscycling/
See you on the 18th!
Thanks
The ASC Race Team
