Description

Bring out your vintage pride and joy or dust off that old road bike that has been languishing at the back of the garage/shed, give it some love and take a step back in time with us on our vintage TT Open event on a rolling ten mile course in Droitwich (K32/10).

 The event is run under the modern day CTT regulations so we will unfortunately have to forego the classic dead turn in the road and you will also need a modern road bike style helmet and working front and rear lights.  

 Helmet and lights are the only modern equipment permitted! That means no aero kit (tri-bars etc), TT bikes or skin suits.  

Normal modern day club ride kit (jersey, bibs, etc) is permitted. Although, ideally you will get into the spirit of the event and wear a classic merino wool jersey or similar period kit!

It’s a 1980’s or older period correct bike that should have the following: –

  • Ideally a steel frameset
  • Down tube, stem mounted or bar end non-indexed shift levers
  • If not derailleur gears then either a 3/4 speed internal geared hub or fixed gears.  
  • Ideally the brake cables should pass over the top of the handlebars, although period hidden cables are permitted.
  • No integrated brake and shift levers  
  • Flat pedals with or without toe clips
  • No aero bars
  • No modern wheel sets
  • No disc wheels

Modern reproductions of vintage bikes may be accepted, please contact the organiser with details of the bike you would like to enter.
