Sign on

Signing on will be open from 9:00 at the gazebo by the entrance to the Riverside car park.

Please sign on in plenty of time.

Course

We are using a similar course to last year’s event with some variations to the top part of the senior course, there will still be a good combination of grass, gravel and woodland. We tested having separate under 12s course last year, which worked very well and will be doing the same again this year.

The course – similar to previous rounds with a little nuance.

We have got path closures in place for the day so the general public should not be on the course. Please be respectful of other park users, take any litter home with you we would like to come back here again next year.

Pits/jet wash area

We have a double pit with a jet wash area at each end. All jet washing must be done in the jet wash area provided, not in the car park.

Facilities

Toilets and café are situated in the Riverside car park. There is another café at Towneley Hall a short walk away.

Podium

Youth, U8, U10 and U12 – we aim to do the presentation immediately after their race has finished.

Prizes for senior races will be sent via bank transfer after the event.
