There’ll be trophies presented on the podium with spot prizes to be won. The arena will have full facilities including quality catering and toilets and will be very spectator friendly.
Pre-entry will be open until late on the Wednesday before the event or you can enter on the day from 8am.
All pre-entered riders will receive a pre-event information email in the week leading up to the event and course updates will be posted on our Facebook.
