Dear Brompton Owner

We would like to cordially invite you to take part in the forthcoming Brompton World Championship 2008.

This will be the 3rd Brompton World Championship; the first two were held in Barcelona but this year sees the Championship come home to the country in which the bike is designed and built.

This year’s Brompton World Championship will be held on Sunday 28th September 2008 at Blenheim Palace, Oxfordshire, as part of the Bike Blenheim Palace event. Blenheim Palace is opening up its grounds for the first time to a variety of different bike users; once the racing is over, the trails will be open to the general public to explore the grounds freely.

ドレスコードがあります↓
Rules for the event are not overly onerous, but poor dress sense will not be tolerated: a suit jacket, collared shirt and tie are de rigueur for participants; sports attire is not permitted, and Lycra shorts/leggings are specifically named, shamed and excluded. Competitors will be expected to demonstrate their folding skills in a Le Mans style start.

Prizes will be awarded for the fastest male, female, junior (under 17), veteran (60 plus) and team competitors, and also for the Best-Dressed.
