A total of 83 competitors - 36 women and 57 men - will be leaving Wolverhampton's West Park between 10am and 2.30pm in the first cycling road event of Birmingham 2022. From there they will race around the streets of Wolverhampton, Dudley and South Staffs before returning to the point of departure.

The women will be riding round an 18-mile course while the men's route will be 23.2 miles in a race that is set to be popular with spectators.

The route will take riders through Wolverhampton, Dudley and a large surrounding area

Each rider sets off one minute apart, allowing them to fully focus on achieving their fastest possible time without trying to one-up their competitors' position or hit traffic.

The organisers have now released the entry list for both races, and the order in which the cyclists will be appearing.

The female athletes will depart West Park from 10.01am-10.36am, while the men will be setting off from 12.01pm-12.28pm and 2.01pm-2.29pm.

We're live blogging today's race so you can keep up with what's going on, both on the course and away from it.
