1st gear steve Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 Just been up to Woodhead Farm - the New Venue for M'bro 2 day on sept 5/6, deep in Fryup Dale - Venue looks pretty Impressive, though still a lot of work to do. I am told part of the land was used for British champs round about 10 years ago (also used in the Cleveland trial many Moons ago), but now has the addition of a rocky stream & a hillside full of rocky out crops & climbs. Running as a charity event (North Air Ambulance) & has camping, farmer does'nt want open fires, but thin BBQs are OK. Club is also trying a new system - with 3 routes instead of 2 on each section. 1 for easy (clubman B / Over 50 / Yth C). 1 for Clubman A / Yth B. Then a hard course - however as there is a middle route, Inters & Youth A will not have to ride full hard course on all sections - giving the experts a chance to have a go at some big stuff, & not over stretching the rest. Hopefully this will please more of the riders & encourage some to have a go at moving up, whilst allowing others to ride in there correct class & have a good weekends sport - Sounds good to me? This is the clubs 1st 2 day since they lost Woodhouse Farm 5 years ago, i was passd the info below also.... It Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cota kid Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Looks a good bit of muck. Always good to see any club getting new land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1st gear steve Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 Good to hear From you again Dom - will you be home to ride? The terrain is outstanding - due to the short planning time, the club have 'barely' tickled the surface on this one, so providing we can hang onto this for a few year, it will reap a great harvest of new sections each year.....
