Yes, you are welcome to do this if you are 12 years or older and pay the Cycling Time Trials levy of £2 which the club is required to pay CTT. Please note that you will need to have a parent/guardian complete a parental consent form if you are under 18 yrs. (This only needs to be completed once each season). Note that U18's must wear a hard shell helmet.
