The North Midlands Road Race League (NMRRL)
The Road Race League is held under the The League International (TLI) is a series of evening handicap road races held on Thursday nights during May - August. Held over 3 series with 6 race nights at each at a different venue to the east of Sheffield.

Riders are set off in groups according to ability with the slowest first, giving all riders a chance to cross the line first. Points are awarded for finish places with an overall total awarded for the whole race series.

You need to be a member of a cycling club and the TLI to race but they are great training and a good start for beginners to road racing.
