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 will have a separate U12’s course again this year.

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

We aim to do the presentations immediately after each race has finished for all categories with small non cash prizes. Podium will be next to the finish line gazebo.
