Didn't know there was a race there on the 27th?

It's not a hard loop (I do it with my 10 year old son in about 1.5 hours - if I did it on my own I'd like to see it done in about an hour?

What race is it?

Just found it - it says its the MTB Short Course - I can only assume this is the family ride?

Should be good though...

It's at the training/skills area and is a 4km trail that isn't part of the normal routes.

May go along as my son likes riding at Bedgebury - if I don't have a good one ;)

Hi,
Thanks for that.
I think if I go I will park and ride........
Must be somewhere close enough to warm up to get there.

You can park in a lay-by on the A21 - loads of people do that :)

Fella, just so you know my son has opted for Colchester and a skatepark tomorrow so I won't be there - have a good one though the guys and girls over at Bedgebury seem really friendly :)

Hi,

Weather is going to be bad tomorrow.
Camber suffering from the 6hr ride.
Thinking of using my Big Hit depending on the hills.

HI.
I went
Raced
Quite different race.
Fast run down then long climb back up through woods etc.

Other racers said " Relentless " I must agree . It was fast down and windy all the way up.
Managed 5 laps 1hour approx 10mins . 3.2 km a lap.

Really enjoyed it.
stayed till 5.00pm.
More to follow.
Bob
