Description
As the premier XC Endurance events in the South, the hugely popular
Brass Monkeys Series is held at outstanding MOD venues which are highly
suitable for XC endurance racing on 5-6 mile laps. Each course is
carefully planned and prepared by a very experienced team, and you'll
ride through heath and pine woodland with flowing and testing
singletrack mixed in with swooping trails and stone fire roads. You
just choose how long you want to ride for, select your age category and
then complete as many laps as you can before the time cut off.
In line with British Cycling's current policy: transgender women, transgender men, non-binary individuals and those whose sex was assigned male at birth will be eligible to compete in the 3 hour Open 18+ category only, and should ensure that they continue to adhere to the requirements of UK Anti-Doping. Those whose sex was assigned female at birth are also able to compete in the Open category if they so wish. The Female categories will remain in place for those whose sex was assigned female at birth and transgender men who are yet to begin hormone therapy.
Categorys are defined by your age on Sunday 28 January 2024 and will be:
2hr Male Junior 14-17, Male 18-39, Female 14-39, Male 40+, Female 40+,
