Hi Ben - after the Midland DC website stopped being updated, we created a calendar of Midland club events and UK-wide open events on the AeroCoach website (https://www.aero-coach.co.uk/events) - scroll to the bottom of the page. It is a bit basic, but at least you can see which events are on each night, and can then go to the specific club's website, rather than having to go through all of them. You can't filter on e.g. hill climbs vs standard TTs, but as a general rule any courses with short codes e.g. KH12 rather than K33/10D will be hill climbs :)

Hi Ben. This was mentioned at Midlands District CTT meeting held yesterday. From what I understand it has been moved to Pea Royd Lane in South Yorkshire. I think the reason given was the organising club would not or could not submit a budget to the satisfaction of national CTT. Several different budgets were submitted, relationship between national CTT officials & the event organiser deteriorated until the event had to be moved. Very sad for all, Shelsley Walsh would have been a fantastic venue.

Yeah, it's a shame. I was looking forward to it but have withdrawn my entry now as the logistics of getting to the new venue don't work. Will still be riding the warm up event this weekend at least. Thanks for the info.
