tl;dr ?

  • Parking is limited, please car share or ride up. Do not park on any grass verges in the village or block any drives. Be polite to any locals who take issue with your parking.
  • The course is challenging and the surface is what can best be described as "variable" in places and potholes are far from unknown. Recce the course beforehand and familiarise yourself with both the route and hazards such as (but not limited to) steep descents, rough surfaces and hedge gaps (if windy). Ride to the course and choose your equipment accordingly. This is not a course for power meter watching.
  • Do not cut the corner at the Right hand turn at Scots Gap. This is the easiest way to get DQ'd. The next easiest way to get DQ'd is to use the centre line as your racing line. Roads are narrow. Stay left.
  • Sections of the course are very remote and it's a long walk back if you can't fix a straight forward mechanical or puncture.

Safety Notes

This course is set in beautiful countryside, however it is challenging to even the most experienced riders with high speed descents, some poor road surfaces and early season weather conditions.

Riders should obey the highway code at all times and in particular not cut corners or takes risks with control of their bike on steep/long descents and into corners.

In addition to their personal safety riders also have a responsibility to the sport to ride in both a fair and safe manner.

Safety information and on the day risk assessment will be available when you sign in for the race and an experienced club member will be available for younger riders and novices to discuss any concerns about the course and conditions.

You are advised that:

  •  
  • No U-Turns are to be made in the vicinity of the timekeeper and no dismounting in the finishing area.
  • Take extra care at road junctions and particularly at the T-junction for Scots Gap and the right turn for Rothley Cross Roads.
  • No cutting corners or crossing white lines – if witnessed by an official you will be disqualified.
  • Head up and watch out for potholes and oncoming traffic.
  • TAKE GREAT CARE ON THE DESCENT AND CLIMB OF MIDDLETON BANK BECAUSE OF THE BAD ROAD SURFACE
  • You are responsible for navigating the course – familiarise yourself with the course – a map is available on the Barnesbury website

In the interests of your safety, we recommend that all competitors wear a hard shell helmet and start the race with a working red flashing rear light. Junior riders MUST wear a hard shell helmet.
