2007 Licence Application Form

2012 DOMESTIC LICENCE APPLICATION & MEMBERSHIP FORM

BikeNZ issues Race Licences for Road and Track racing which are valid for one calendar year.

A BikeNZ Race Licence allows you to compete in most road, track and mountain bike events run by an affiliated Club or Centre, or sanctioned by BikeNZ Road & Track (BR&T), BikeNZ or Mountain Bike NZ (MTBNZ). Note: You may need a clearance from your club and in some instances, e.g. National Championships, you may also need to be a financial member of the Member Organisation holding the Championships. Ensure you check the specific event’s licence requirements.

You cannot use a BikeNZ licence to compete in BMX events. For details on licences for BMX, contact BMX NZ on

YOUR MEMBER ORGANISATION

You must select BRT as your Member Organisation. Completion of this form records your agreement to be a member of your chosen Member Organisation. This is the organisation with whom your licence is held, and you are bound by its constitution, rules and regulations. In most cases, your affiliated club will determine your Member Organisation. However there are a number of clubs that are affiliated to both BRT and MTBNZ. If you have any queries regarding this, please talk with your club.

RACE LICENCE TYPES

There arefour types of race licences available: Club (BRT only), Centre (BRT Only), National and International, and, asthe names suggest, each licence allows you to race in the different levels of competition. Please note for Junior U15 or U17 riders the ONLY licence type available are national licences.

You must be a financial member of an affiliated club to be eligible for a racing licence. See www.bikenz.org.nz for details on affiliated clubs.

You are able to upgrade throughout the year by paying the difference in fees. Contact BikeNZ for further information.

INTERNATIONAL LICENCES

Please note this is the domestic licence form. If you require an international licence please go to www.bikenz.org.nz and download the international licence form.

TECHNICAL LICENCES

A Technical Licence caters for Commissaires, Coaches, Managers, Mechanics and Soigneurs and allows licence holders to attend Club, Centre, National and International Events in an official capacity. For BRT members, technical endorsements on domestic racing licences are free. If you don’t hold a race licence, your technical licence will attract the published fee of $30.

LICENCE CATEGORIES

Your Licence Category states which category you compete in, and in most cases, is determined by your age. There are circumstances, however, which allow you to compete outside your normal category. Contact your club for further details.

Where you use your licence with another Member Organisation, your category may vary according to the category structure.
