Great news that Hillingdon is back on - have you managed to get round the 'no-fairings' policy? There's a new track at Doncaster if you're struggling for an odd date... https://www.doncaster.gov.uk/services/culture-leisure-tourism/doncaster-cycle-track" rel="nofollow - https://www.doncaster.gov.uk/services/culture-leisure-tourism/doncaster-cycle-track Russ

Yes all is good. no fairings was written on their track use policy, so enquired abotu this and sent them some pics (Beano, velomobile partfaired lowracers). They are happy for us to continue and have removed the no fairing statement from their policy

Full details of the 2025 race calendar are now available in https://www.facebook.com/groups/britishhumanpowerclub/events/" rel="nofollow - BHPC Facebook Events and on the BHPC website ( https://www.bhpc.org.uk/events/2025-races" rel="nofollow - 2025 Races page ). Note that the times given for events are the times we've booked access to the track, not actual race times. Depending on the venue, the first race is typically 30-60 mins after 'track open', allowing time for us to set up and you to warm up on the track. Similarly the last race typically finishes 30-60 mins before 'track close', allowing time to pack up and get out before gates get locked.

| Details for Races 10 and 11 are listed on the BHPC website as TBA. Are these races phantoms or are there a couple of races still to be added. |

We believe they will both be at Hereford, probably over a weekend in September but we are awaiting confirmation from Chris. ------------- |

| I hope the extra races are in the second half of the month as we have other plans early on. |

Opposite here as I’m away at the end of the month. We were hoping to have the calendar finalised by Christmas as usual so people could make plans around it. Until we hear from Chris I honestly don’t know what’s happening but a weekend at Hereford was the plan as far as I know and September looks the most likely gap in the calendar. ------------- |

Later in Sept would be good for a few people as we'll be in Battle Mountain 'till 15th or so - Russ, Barney, John, Andrew, and possibly others too. If Hereford isn't available, I'll put my vote in for a double race weekend of Gravesend and Betteshanger. Russ

Hereford is likely to be very challenging for the streamliners I think but that was the plan the last time we heard from Chris. ------------- |

Those of a nerdy disposition with an online calendar may like to synchronise BHPC Events with their personal calendar:
