Dear all,

Your help is needed to marshall the Cheshire Classic Road Race on Sunday 22nd April. The race is the opening race on the Women's National Series calendar and we have a great field with some big name riders travelling from all round the country.

We have had a lot of great press over the past few months in Cycling Weekly, Velo UK and a number of blogs. We were even on the front page of British Cycling this morning! We will be supported by National Escort Group and paramedic outriders this year too.

We need people on junctions and a team of riders to cycle round and reece the course beforehand to check for tacks etc!

Please let us know on here and send Alan Silver an email if you can attend to alan@weavervalleycc.org.uk

Thanks in advance for those that volunteer, without you the race wouldn't be possible. Your help and support is much appreciated.

Woody

Les,

You jump out in the middle of the road with a red flag. Hoping that the traffic will stop 😉

They do a marshals briefing before the race. You get put in teams at the junctions with people that have done it before.

It's good fun as long as the weather is ok. Bit miserable if its raining.
