Stewards: Unlike a lot of club competitions, the TT league is well stewarded. Safety standards were high in 2005, with no accidents reported. A minimum of eight stewards is required on each night. Additional help is always welcome and we would encourage each competitor to assist as a steward on at least one occasion. Each competitor who assists as a steward will receive 3 league points. If you can nominate a night in advance this would assist greatly in setting up the stewards rota.
Results: Results will be published on www.cycling-pursuits.com each Friday throughout the duration of the league.
