Supported by Otley Town Council
Welcome to the official website of the annual Otley Cycle Races. Despite our best efforts we couldn't run the event in 2020, but we were back for 2021 and 2022 with the 36th edition and what a scinitilating evening of high class racing it was. Why not join us again this year in the picturesque Yorkshire Market town of Otley. Wednesday 28th June 2023
