Dave Astles Cheshire Series 2018

This successful, age related, TLI Cycling promotion takes place each year in memory of the late Dave Astles a stalwart of the TLI cycling racing scene.  The event is based in Siddington, Cheshire, covering 2.5 laps of a great circuit, approx 30 miles in total (Link to Course map). The series is run over 4 weeks, on Tuesday evenings, at the start of our British summer time.

Each week we run three races, split into various age categories. Prizes are awarded for the top 3 placings within each category.

Entry Policy

In order to run the series successfully we require you to marshal one event. So it’s ride up to three races and marshal one event. This means you need to be committed to all 4 races in the series. Please bear this in mind before entering as places are limited!
Entry will close approximately 3 weeks before the first event. In the event of the series being oversubscribed TLI Cycling Rule 4.8 will apply. If you decide you cannot ride or marshal the Series after entering, please let us know ASAP. We can then allow the next person on the reserve list, a place in the Series. Please note, entry cannot be transferred to a club/team mate.
Entries will again be through the TLI Cycling online portal. Any queries, please contact us.
