August 9, 200917 yr 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
August 17, 200917 yr Here is a few photos from the place, i will get some more when we remove some more sodding bracken.
August 23, 200917 yr Author 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.....
