Cycling regional championship races held at the Herne Hill Velodrome.
The South East Regional Champs are coming to Herne Hill Velodrome on Sunday 6 December, the regional cycling championship for the South East. It's a full day of racing on the boards, with the action getting underway from 09:00.
For those who don't know the venue, Herne Hill is one of London's most storied velodromes, tucked away in South East London. It's an outdoor track, so the weather will play its part in how the day unfolds. The regional championships bring together riders from across the South East, and because it's a championship event, there's a different energy to it than a standard club meet — people are racing for a title, not just a result.
If you're not competing, it's a great spot to spend a Sunday morning. You can watch the heats build up throughout the day, with the faster riders working their way through to the finals. It's the kind of event where you can see the whole progression of the day, from the early heats to the final sprints, all in one place. If you've never seen a velodrome race up close, this is a good way to get a proper look at how it works.
