Race Format
The NMRRL (North Midlands Road Race League), held under the TLI (The League International) is a series of evening handicap road races held on a Thursday night. Held over 3 series with 6 race nights at each at a different venue to the east of Sheffield.
Riders are set off in groups according to ability with the slowest first, giving all riders a chance to cross the line first. Points are awarded for finish places with an overall total awarded for the whole race series.
