1st gear steve Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 The Clubman 2 day at Lordsones cafe run by Middlesbrough DMC will take place on Sat/Sun 7&8th May. (it may the only time it runs). The Landowner has sold the land & Cafe, as yet have not been in touch with the potential new owner - THIS MAY BE YOUR ONLY CHANCE. Classes for Clubman A&B and Youth over the same sections. All sections will be dual route, so will suit a wide spectrum of abilities. This is an Open Event - so everyone is welcome! Exp/inter welcome on no award basis. Those that rode the single day events at the venue last year will know what to expect, but if you have not been before a couple of excellent gullies (& yes the double sub will be in again this year) along with some great climbs (the graded hill has been lengthened also). The guys have already been working up there and have extended one of the gullies & intend to run totally seperate sections each day. Anyone able to observe would be great (we stuggled last year), they can bring there bike. 2.30 on Sat 11am on Sunday close at start - 1 day entry available, but you wont get an award Camping on sat night - those of you that have been to Lordstones before will know it is licenced (opening times not yet confirmed) , John Simpson is very welcoming & happy to have us there, however any riding before or after the event will result in immediate exclusion. Lordstones is in a spectacular location at the top of Carlton Bank between Chop Gate & Carlton N.Yorks For further info - drop me a line - hope to see you all there.............. Remember keep it in 1st! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1st gear steve Posted April 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 All sections sorted - keep fingers crossed for good weather Hoping for 10 sections on the saturday & 11 on sunday, so if you can observe your time will be most appreciated - if you have a bike, bring it & ride to your section. Graded hill has been extended & should offer a good challenge. Work has been done on each gully to give longer sections in some places - with a double sub both days - different sections each day (not just re hashed) Everyone welcome (exp/inter for no award - though it would be nice to see if 1 or 2 turned up to observe for us wobblers??) Remeber sat at 2.30, sunday 11am - camp on saturday night. See you there........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1st gear steve Posted May 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Just got off the phone to John Simpson......... Camping confirmed, toilets (proper plumbed ones) will be open - he also confirmed, clean water should be plentyful. Camp area will be close to the cafe, where there is also a 'fire pit' so good banter can be had 'around the fire. Camping looks great & will also be fine for caravans...... Hopefully i wont be the only one sat round the fire & crying into my beer. As wri5ty has broke his hand - Had'nt you heard???? Fell of a uni cycle!!!!! might need to lock up your beer as he will not need to worry about a hangover. See you there (hopefully) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
