Course descriptions and pre-ride video

Senior and Youth

For the seniors and youths, the course is a great mix of climbs, grass, asphalt, cobbles, and mard pack, with a few loamy woodland bits too. In the worst of winter weather, the grass will become very tough, but other parts will survive hard rain and remain very rideable. A surprising amount.

Note: The start won’t be where indicated on the video – there would be too much of a pinch point in larger fields, so it will be as shown on the map. This is a grass start.

U12/10/8

The Under 12, Under 10 and Under 8 courses will by about 75% self-contained, meaning that MOST of the course can be practiced whilst the Youth races are on in the morning. Parts, including the finish, on asphalt won’t be available until the actual race. The course for these races is a mix of (mainly) undulating grass and corners around bumps and trees, but it is designed to be rideable by our smallest riders, whilst giving enough of a challenge for our fastst ones.
