Number Plates

Royston BMX Club and BMX East allow riders to choose which plate they use but they must use the plate and number colour combinations specified for the class in which they are racing as given in the BC regulations.

All riders must use a plate displaying the number with which they have registered. Riders displaying a different number to that they have registered on maybe relegated to last place +2 points.

Challenge Classes – These are classes run at Club and Regional events

Male/Boys – Yellow plate, black numbers

Female/Girls – Blue plate, white numbers

Cruiser – All Red plate, white numbers

Championship   – These are for International riders at National events

Elite Male or Female – White plate, black numbers 

Junior Male or Female – Black plate, white numbers

Riders may only use a race number which can be generated from one of the following:

• Regional Yellow plates with black regional standings numbers and the “.3” regional postscript using their Standing from the previous Summer Series
• Their National standing from the previous year. A rider who is riding out of the class in which the standing was achieved must be identified with an “X”.
• A current World Championship finalist may use their W1 – 8 Plate until the next World Championships.  
• A current European Championship finalist may use their E1 – 8 Plate until the next European Championships.  In the event of a clash of numbers, the A rider who is riding out of the class in which it was won will must be identified with an “X”
• A current British Champion may use their “01” plate until the next British Championships
