Christmas Wishes and Looking Ahead to the Spring Series

by Paul Howard, 26 Dec 08.

All at Gorrick extend their warmest Christmas wishes and look forward to a great New Year which kicks off in January with the first Spring Series Xc race at Yateley Heath. Riders used to accessing the venue from the Minley Road through The Yard will find we are moving the entrance to west side of the venue off Blackbushes Road. This was last used some 5 years ago and presents us with greater course route options. We've already been up there renewing some of the long forgotten trails and creating new ones to keep the course exciting.

The other newsworthy item which is very important for all competitors is a change to the race start times. Some such as the Supermasters and Master Men have been brought to 9.45am. This was done to reduce the number of riders previously on course when Supermasters, Masters, Veterans and Grand Veterans were all out together. It will mean an earlier start for some but we hope it will give a better racing experience with less congested trails. Please refer to the following pages for full details...
