Why does Codham Park not appear on any maps ?

I think i've seen a big sign for Codham Park as you come off the M25 onto the A127 but thought it was an industrial estate ??

It is, This codham park however is in braintree and is private land, its basically someones back garden. Awesome course, best of the year after langdon.
But now with Nuclear bunker, this is going to be a fun series, and the last one in september being the olympic track. Should be EPIC!

Spence if i'm going, so are you!
Thetford and tunstallare a pain the Aris but if going for points i suppose its a must.
Tunstall we camped over night, made a night of it, quite good.
Thetford is a bit closer, but very simular terrain.
Ickworth :?
Langdon Hills, you'd be able to kill it this time!

Oh and i think a 2hr for us both :wink:

Ickworth was boring but the first time they'd been allowed to do the event on National Trust land. Maybe this time they'll be allowed to stay in the woods for more than 5 yards.
Looks like a few of us may be entering the whole series. I've still not ridden at Langdon.

Better then Codham Park :shock:

edit:
Hope next year IS going to get hit by flooding we need more rain. Hyland & Langdon was a mess.

Yeah well this years I did't do as I was away. Year before I found out about MSG too late! It will be rectified!
Spence you've just Jinxed it now. Next years weather will be worse.

LOL this year was a wash out.
Codham park is a different kind of course, Langdon you've done with me a few times, you just didnt do it at race pace
Long hard ups, but fun fast downs, as it should be.

I'm with Ian on this all tracks are good, now with Kelvden in the mix its going to be a good session (maybe stumpy can fill us in on the bunker one ;-) )

The further away ones are a far few miles away but are good courses when dry, this year was a bit of a wash out and codham park ate my drive train but all good fun.. Maybe this is why Hylands park is no more.. All those bikers trashing the grounds in the wet...??

... the Bunker event will be broadly speaking what we did in September for Blast; as far as I know the course was going to have some more flowing bits added and knowing the guys we'll add some more technical bits...

Clearly I'll leak anything I find out here...

Im about to email my boss the dates for this to let him know i wont be able to work on these days, im so keen to start racing but keep having things get in the way. the only one i wont be able to make is langdon hills, and Tunstall could be an issue as i arrive back from 2 weeks snowboarding in Austria on march 16th so will plan that when it gets here.
