Friday Night Summer Series (FNSS)

Background

The series started in 1992. The series was originally called “The Inter Club Mountain Bike Summer Series“. WVCC was a founder member club.
Name changed to FNSS to attract more riders
28th year this year – 2nd oldest MTB series in the world (the world champs are a year older!)
Run by one of our sponsors – Neil Holman of George Halls Cycle Centre

Format

Friday evenings from May to August (as Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings were already taken by club events).
Sign-on and course inspection 6pm-7pm
7.15pm start – 4 starts by category 1-2 mins apart.
50-60 minutes + a leader lap – similar to a cyclocross race. Everyone finishes on the same lap after the winner has crossed the line.
Non-BC. Insured by NFU to keep the cost down.
All levels of riders
Most of these venues are on private land, so riding is not permitted at other times.
