Number / Board
We are re-using the 2025 boards in 2026, so bring your old board along. Sub Nippers and those moving from primary to high school will be issued new boards irrespective (free of charge, no need to notify us). The board must be used for all races in the 2026 series.
If you were issued a board in 2025 or 2026, but need a replacement, submit a request at Registration – Western Cape School Cycling – Support desk with the summary “New board” and share your name, date of birth and, if known, old board number, then we will have it ready for you on the day, reducing waiting time. One free board will be issued per year, subsequent replacements will incur a R100 fee.
Parking
Parking will be available at the venue. Refer to the parking plan below.
Registration
There will be a registration point at the venue where Team Managers must collect their school’s number boards at least one hour prior to the start of racing. The number boards contain a timing chip with a rider’s details and cyclists may therefore not swop number boards! Should there be any children not represented by a Team Manager, they are to go to registration with a responsible adult. Registration opens at 6:50
Timing
An electronic timing system will be in use. Each number board has an embedded chip which the timing system will pick up. Participants are required to have their number boards attached to the front handlebars before the start of an event. No board, no time!
Please do not swap your timing board with another participant. Your personal information is stored on the timing system linked to the board you are issued with. The bike boards are to be kept for the entire series. If you lose your board between races, a new one can be purchased at registration at a cost of R100.
Online Registration
Registration is now closed. We do not accept any entries on the day.
