I’m feeling strangely empty this morning as I type this – the Victoria Park crits are over, and my Wednesday evenings will never be the same again.

Royal Victoria, Queen of promotion

Every so often I find myself involved in an event, a series or a something where I get a sense of something important "happening", something which will go down in local cycling folklore should it not happen again. I think the last time I can say this of a race was at the innaugral Brighton Big Dog race in 2009. The May crits in Bath have that feel too. What a bloody fantastic idea, whoever concieved this love child well deserves at least a Blue Peter badge in my eyes.

Bike racing returns to Bath's Victoria Park each Wednesday this May

Entries invited for what looks set to be some thrilling evenings of racing next month
