Ryde On Road Racing has been suspended for the next few months due to the lack of entrants.
If competitors want on road racing to continue - THEY MUST do an online entry by the Wednesday preceeding the race meeting by going to www.sydneyrc.com find the online button and process your entry. The entry numbers will be checked on Wednesday evening prior to the race meeting. If more than 10 entries have been received we will hold the race meeting otherwise the meeting will be cancelled. It is recommended that all competitors check the Forum button on the club web site for notice of meeting being held.
We apologies for the inconvenience that this may cause our On Roaders, but it is not much fun loading up all the race gear and then waiting around for hours to find no one turns up.
