The government announcements on 30th December 2020 regarding increased restrictions on movements make the next planned event on 16th January 2021 not possible to run. Whilst there are suggestions about more clarity on organised sports events coming in the first week of January, it’s clear that travel for many competitors – and those organising and […]
Well… somehow the wind stopped, the rain stopped, the snow stayed just a few miles away, and we got away with another corking event – thanks to the efforts of Commissaires Graham and Len, Registration team Christine, Vanessa, timing from Mark and this time round helpers from RIBBLE VALLEY JUNIORS, RED ROSE OLYMPIC and PORT […]
After the Round 2 work to get the new track / bridge / gate in, Round 3 will be a time to consolidate, so expect tweaks to the course design, slight further shortening of the lap, and a few new lines and some old favourites.

It took a while, but after a painful and complicated start, we’re now hitting the ground running. The league’s member clubs have had a hard time, like many sports, securing venues – mainly on public land – where events can be organised alongside the public in a COVID-secure way. The National Trophy event at Westmorland […]
We don’t need to explain that it’s been a strange year. The situation regarding our sport has been unclear, at best, over summer, and since the initial lockdown restrictions began being lifted, then new restrictions came along, the situation has not helped our race organising clubs at all.
