Baker Cup Handicap

Don’t miss our annual 5k road race..

First competed for in 1911, the Baker Cup is our traditional road handicap; a mere 5 km (3 miles) around the Ballet School, making it immensely suitable for all abilities.

First across the line will take home the Baker Cup and also a Ranelagh medal. The cup was presented by one of our longest-serving members (76 years), Ranelagh President (1912 - 1920) Fred W. Baker. We will also be awarding medals for 2nd & 3rd, the 3 fastest Open & the 3 fastest Women, so please come back to the clubhouse to show your support.
