From the front page.
Click on Sport (below header image)
Click on any category of racing (LH side)
Click on the calendar option.
The default will select the sport category that you've come from. Deselect this if you have a broad interest. From here it's a matter of smart searching to find the events open to women. The discipline listing will list all the categories of riders who are catered for at any event. Pick your months, region and discipline (yes, I know this conflicts with the previous statement) carefully.
My advice - 1) check the series listing although much of that will be for team entrants so if you were eligible you would already know about it. 2) Check the Go Ride classification. Patronising but it gets you to the start line. 3) Max the results per page and prepare to use CTRL+F and speed up your searching times.
As you will need to have a license to race, get one and then write back to BC to tell them that they really should have a women's specific listing on the website so you can find the stuff and enter it without using a Kray to resolve the data for you.
Also, take up cyclocross. Almost every single league event will have a womens race at the same time as the mens race. As there will be any number of silver spinners out there you shouldn't be the last on the field in any race.
