andy_290 Posted April 14, 2006 Report Share Posted April 14, 2006 Hi Mat, Hope the snowboarding was good. I'm a bit confused here, was just about to PM ferretflasher. The TC calendar says that it's at Dovecliffe Woods, but the TMX news says : Barnsley TC (Adult & Youth). Rd 2 Club Novice & Beginners Trials Series at Carcroft Motorcycle Park, Bentley, Morr Lane, Carcroft, Doncaster, South Yorks. 10.3 Where's it at?

telecat Posted April 14, 2006 Report Share Posted April 14, 2006 (edited) The way we go is to come off the M1 at Junction 36 and go down the A6195 to wards Wath. I think it's about 5 roundabouts down and you need to take the Wombwell turn signposted for the station. When you get to the Crossroads go straight across. This takes you on to Dovecliffe Road. This takes you alongside Wombwell Wood. The trial Venue is on the right about a mile up. If the Sections are close to the road you'll see them on the right. Either way It's a road on the right I think with some signs pointing to a Recycling site(I think that's what it is). As you go down the road hairpins left and the trial entrance is on the outside of that corner. Take direction from the officials as to where to park as it can be a bit tight. Might be worth checking with the Club as TMX say the trial is at Carcroft Motorcycle Park Near Doncaster.(Number in TMX).

andy_290 Posted April 14, 2006 Report Share Posted April 14, 2006 How easy will the sections be compared to normal trials like the one I did @ grimethorpe? It's between this one and the Hillsborough trial for me and I don't want anything TOO easy that's all, not that I'm very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_290 Posted April 14, 2006 Report Share Posted April 14, 2006 All good then I enjoyed the grimethorpe sections, could you let us know for sure tomorrow (sorry to be a pain in the ass). and as you say it couldn't be much worse than grimethorpe area-wise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

telecat Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Had a word with Phil At the A & B National and he said Carcroft is a dedicated facility for Motorcycle/quads. They are trying to attract Trials riders as well as Moto-X and Quad riders. Barnsley Club are holding trials there and helping them out by showing them what trials are about and how to set them out. The feeling was that it was a good trial and they will have a couple more there this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
