Brompton World Championship Coming To US: Part of UCI Worlds
- Written by Pitch Engine
Get your suit jacket and tie ready, the Brompton World Championship USA is coming to the UCI road world championship September 25, 2015. Hosted by Brompton, the iconic folding bike manufacturer from London, the Brompton World Championship series is part sporting-event, part sartorial spectacle. Contestants wear suit jackets along with shirts and ties and run, Le Mans style, to their folded Bromptons. The fastest man and woman to unfold their bicycle and race the one-lap, ten-mile circuit of the UCI “Worlds” course will take winners titles and will be sent to the Brompton World Championship final in London, next year.
Rules for the Brompton World Championship USA are simple. Contestants dress in suit jackets and ties and all Lycra must be hidden. They then run Le Mans style to their folded Brompton bikes and unfold them before speeding off round one lap of the UCI Road World Championships course in Richmond, VA. The race starts 6.45pm, Friday September 25 and is expected to last one hour with the first entrants completing a circuit in as little as 25 minutes.
