We kick off the New Year with a New Venue, but a familiar race.  We are going to De Werf, just off the N7 on Philadelphia Road.  This is the perfect venue for cyclists to bring their family and friends along to – there is a market, a restaurant and plenty for the kiddies to do while Dad is out racing.
