Five Irish road races have decided to move onto and will be held in virtual format as part of a new E-racing series on the RGT platform.
The Spring e-Racing Classic League is being sponsored by Velotec and will give Irish riders something to aim for by way of competitive action in the coming weeks when the road racing season would normally be underway.
The five-race league gets started with the Bobby Power Memorial, which is usually held in Carrick-on-Suir on St Patrick's Day.
“Points
will be awarded for each race in the 5
race series, starting with Panduit Carrick Wheelers’ Bobby Power Memorial Race on Wednesday, March 17th, at 11am,” the organisers said.
After the opening
round, Carlow CC’s Rás
Ceatharlach will take place on Sunday, March 21st, at 11:00am followed by Drogheda
Wheelers promotion, the Boyne
Valley GP, on Sunday, March 28th.
On Easter Sunday,
April 4th, at 11am, Gorey CC will host a round of the league, which will be stage 2 of the Gorey
Three Day.
And finally, on
Wednesday, April 7th, there is a 27km criterium circuit around Dublin
Port starting at 8pm.
Velotec will be presenting indoor trainer jerseys for the highest scoring male and female riders at the end of the five rounds.
