The first 1-2-1 Hamsterley Race

What it is

This event consists of a Cross-Country race on Saturday 25th September 2010 and a Downhill on Sunday the 26th. The only catch is you have to use the same bike for both races.

How it works

If 100 people enter, the winner of each event will get 100 points, the second, 99, and so on. The winner will be the person with the most points overall.

In the unlikely event of a tie, the fastest overall time will be used to determine a winner.

Your bike will be tagged with an electronic chip for timing. This will be zip-tied to your lower fork leg. Any tampering with the chip will result in rider disqualification.

Saturday

Racing will start at 11am.

The XC race will consist of a 4.5 mile loop. Number of laps will depend on your category. Once that’s finished, get yourself a beer and some grub before hitting the DH course for some practice.

We will provide a BBQ from 7:30pm on Saturday evening as part of your race entry. Non-competitors will be subject to a small charge of £5. This fee will also include their camping at the event.

Sunday is Downhill day

Practice will open at 8am and racing will start at 11am.

Bikes will be checked on the start line. Any bikes not matching the bike used the previous day will be disqualified!!!

You will get 2 runs, with your fastest run being used.

Accommodation

You will be able to camp in the forest from 6pm Friday 24th, until Sunday. This will be included in your race entry. We ask that you have your tent and equipment packed up by 4pm Sunday 26th.

We would like to run this event again, so please respect the Grove House and keep noise to a minimum after 10pm.

Alternatively there are a number of local B&B’s and caravan sites in the local area.
