Sunday 7 April, 1300-1700 hrs
Please Google 'Redbridge Cycle Centre' for full details
Getting there
Recommend you Google ‘IG6 3HP’ and print a map, the last bit is difficult to explain but is easy to follow on a map.
Basic details
The Redbridge road circuit has been specifically designed for bike racing and testing, away from the traffic of public roads. The circuit we will be using is 2.0km in length, including several challenging bends and the steepish Hog Hill.
Within the facility are toilets, changing rooms, lockers and showers. A nice café serving hot/cold drinks and snacks, a large car park is provided.
Circuit etiquette
Please ride only in the direction indicated by the marshals (anti-clockwise). All testers to wear cycling helmets at all times on the circuit. Keep left and overtake on the right, call ahead to other riders when overtaking, note - riders ahead have right of way. Be aware that others may come out of junctions around the circuit. Be especially careful when approaching and leaving the gazebo pits area, clearly making an advance decision whether it is your intention to come into the pits (RHS) or continue on the circuit (LHS) at the cones.
Think before you act and if in doubt, don’t do it!
Check the bike thoroughly before setting off and go through brakes and steering checks before riding quickly. Ride within your own ability and stay in control.
If you spot any problems on the circuit, report back to the centre reception.
Please look after the circuit and take any litter home.
E-bike specific requests
Please all e-bikes on the circuit to be UK cycle legal – no derestricting, no dongles, no 500 watt monsters! We must have a level standard so that testers can fairly judge the performance of one e-bike against another.
Try to get to the circuit about 1230-1300 hrs, we have to leave the circuit by 1700 hrs and we want everyone to test any bike of interest.
Please have a good test of any bike, but remember others may be waiting to test the same bike, so do not do unnecessary circuits, remember some bikes may prove more popular to test than others.
If the day is a success, we will repeat it every year – hopefully, it will grow into The National E-bike Day where nearly all suppliers will attend.
Look forward to meeting fellow Pedelecs, enjoy the day.
