BSCA EVENTS 2007/8
IMPORTANT NOTE - These details were taken from the BSCA website on 25th February, so it's a good idea to check with the organiser before the event.
It is too late for the first two National Championships, but the Cyclo-Cross was in Yorkshire and the other was Roller Racing. In the past, the Cyclo-Cross has been more accessible for us.
