Racing

Competitions

At MSC we race every Saturday with the exception of certain ‘exclusive days’. The first race begins at 1.30pm and the second around 3.30pm. During the summer we also hold a Wednesday evening race. Members compete in a number of racing series, collecting points from their best races and are awarded our prestigeous cups in our annual prizegiving.

The club also partcipates in many National competitions such as the Southport 24 hour race and the Top Club competition.

Results

The results of each race are announced after racing and posted in the club house so you can instantly see how you've done and where you stand in the current series. Dickie has been collecting the results and making them available on this site.  See the results section for the current state of this collection.

Duty Rota

Each and every club race is run by a hand picked team of professionals.  Failing that, club members are picked at random out of a hat and put on the duty rota (login required).
