Note to all riders: PLEASE DO NOT PARK IN THE LAY-BY OR ON THE ROAD APPROACHING THE START. Give yourself enough time to find somewhere else to park - e.g. Strensall, Sheriff Hutton or somewhere in the general area.
The ONLY exceptions are those helping with the event and parents bringing younger riders. In these cases - please park in the lay-by if possible and not on the road.
Riders Notes
Please be careful when warming up in the area around the start. Be considerate of other road users when warming up/parking - we don't want any complaints from local residents.
This event takes place on the public highway - all normal rules of the road apply & riders must obey the Highway Code.
Race marshal's are ONLY there to make sure you go the right way. They can't warn, direct or stop traffic for you - it is up to you to make sure it is safe to proceed. If you have to slow down and stop at a junction then please stop - don't take risks.
The road surface on parts of the course isn't great - there are some nice big potholes and gravelly bits etc so be aware.
The head-down riding position is banned.
These notes will be displayed at the start. Any new hazards/notes will be added then.
