This year's British Championships will take place at Orton Malborne, near Peterborough. The club have a few changes planned, but nothing major to the track other than to revamp the rhythm section. Any rider wishing to race the British Championships must have a BC membership valid for the whole of 2008 and must also have qualified through their own summer region series.
