An extremely popular British Cycling national circuit event will return to Pendle this summer. A key date in the racing calendar, Colne is once again looking forward to welcoming some of the top riders in the country to Lancashire. As well as the racing, there will be a number of opportunities for people to #ShopLocal on the night, with local businesses around the circuit opening late on the night.
The Fort Vale Colne Grand Prix, organised by Colne Town Council and CDPP (Cycling Development Pendle Partnership), is a closed-road 800m circuit around Colne's one-way system, which always makes for a fast and exciting spectacle.
Brand new for the 2024 event is the addition of an Elite Women's Race, which will be sponsored by Fort Vale, who are also sponsoring the Elite Men's Race once again this year. This will be the first time in the event's 20 year history that it has featured a women's only elite race.
The racing will get underway at 17:45 with the Coalition Facilities Management Youth Race, which takes place before the Riggs Autopack Support Race at 18:25. The eagerly anticipated Fort Vale Colne Grand Prix Women's Race will then get underway at 19:20, before the grand finale and the Fort Vale Colne Grand Prix Men's Elite Race at 20:20.
