Race Programme

It’s back! Muddy Hell returns to Herne Hill Velodrome with cyclo-cross racing for all ages and categories, with seasonal fancy dress encouraged—and rewarded.

Expect spooktacular features designed to challenge your riding and push your racing until your legs are on fire. Riders will race through our pumpkin patch, foggy forest, and hair-raising hurdles.

With designated fan zones around the course, plus great food and drink, this is an event that will be enjoyed by racers and spectators alike. Supported by Rapha UK, expect some top prizes and fun surprises.

There will be races for Youth U12, Youth U16, a fun race for all riders over 16, and ranking races for men and women (16+). All adult racing will take place under lights, during darkness!
