Tidworth had to rearrange their opening weekend, so we’ve done the same with our first club trip there.
A bunch of us have enter the excellent Root1 Round 1 race, which uses Sicknote as the course, so we will definitely be practicing that, along with 99 Beeches – a new trail that will be used for Round 2.
And we’ll also be trying the other excellent trails there of course.
Don’t forget, entry to Tidworth cost £7 for the day and you will need to sign up for a B1ke (free) membership in advance.
Meet in the car park/finish area at 10am
Nothing too extreme weather wise it seems, so we will be doing a ridgeway route. Wet and slippery ground conditions are likely though.
We will do a 30k route, with the usually amount of ridgeway hills.
You will need lights and a helmet, waterproof jacket/tools/puncture repair – all the usual accessories…
