Racing License
Postby Toolish » Wed Sep 23, 2009 1:47 pm
I have been doing some initial investigation into racing and was told I have to get a licence from cycling australia to do so. I statred that process online and I can't work out what category I fit.
I looked at this PDF
http://www.cycling.org.au/site/cycling/ ... gories.pdf
Given I was born in 1981 I am just a standard mens member from what I can see. Once I started the application process on the website I got to a screen with member options as listed nothing seems to match a non-masters, non-junior male member wanting to race, or am I missing something?

Elite just means that your too old for under23 and too young for masters

Talk to your club and they'll set you straight. My club lets new riders buy up to 3x day licences per year and the club subsidises the cost of those day licences, so a new rider can come and race 3 times before having to fork out big dollars for a full licence.

Not if he wants to race this weekend.

Seeing as I wrote that in 2009 I don't think I was thinking about this weekend.
