Provisional results on BMBO site here and full tracks available on MapRun here so you can evaluate you took the best route! Any corrections to Tim ASAP please and no later than Tuesday.

Unfortunately, the recent MapRun app seems to have caused an issue for Garmin watch users – we’re waiting feedback from MapRun on that.

Here’s Conrad’s planners report:

Great to see such a big turnout for the final summer series event with a healthy contingent from Cleveland Wheelers. The weather was amazing and the views from Beadlam Rigg were breathtaking if you managed to get up there (top north west of the map).

The planning has been easy as the tracks have been so dry for the last 6 months making recce rides an absolute joy.

There were some big scores today and thank you for your kind comments on the event.

Well done to everyone. A big thank you to Fadmoor Village Hall and to Tim and Dave R for their support leading up to the event.

Hope to see you soon. Happy and safe riding.

Jill and Conrad Ellison

It’s a fairly busy event for us on Saturday so highly unlikely that there will be any Entry on the Day. Please get in touch if you missed the online entry deadline.

Mobile signal at the village hall isn’t great – so please make sure to download the MapRun course before you leave home. It’s in the usual place and the QR code is below.

This year’s event will cover Sleighholme Dale, Kirkdale as well as tracks over towards Lastingham.

I’ve ridden the tracks this week and they’re already nettle and bramble free and fast and dry.

The event is from Fadmoor Village Hall and we’re looking forward to seeing you. It’s a 3 hour event followed by the prize giving for the end of Summer series.

Blank course map and other event details will be posted about a week before the event!

John Dixon planned another excellent course around High Paradise Farm. Here’s his report:

Over 40 riders turned out for a day blessed with good weather, dry tracks (mostly) and excellent catering as a reward for all the ups and downs on offer.

It was a large area and that meant riders had to decide where to concentrate their efforts with little chance of bagging all the controls. I was satisfied that the top scores were quite consistent in the mid 300s and achieved by different routes.

My first question as the riders came back was “did you enjoy it?” to which the answer was nearly always “yes”.

Thanks to Tim for an excellent map and to High Paradise for hosting the event.

Final event of the main season is at Fadmoor on October 3rd – entries open now for earlybird discounts  25% off until Monday 28th Sept.

NYMBO Summer Season – Event 6 –  Scarborough

Event 6 of the summer series saw 49 riders take on the bridleways, green lanes and quiet roads north of Scarborough. The air was clear from recent rain and riders were rewarded by a number of sea views on the course. The controls were scattered around Harwood Dale to the west of the main Whitby Scarborough road and Staintondale to the east.

There were some high scoring rides with most of these taking a clockwise route up into Harwood dale and enjoying the fast downhill ride back on and around the cinder track cycleway. Despite the torrential overnight rain there were no reports of large muddy sections on the course and the event remained dry for all riders.

Thanks to Jon Purdy for planning a great course from Scarborough with lots of route choice including The Cinder Track.

Provisional results can be found on MapRun here however there will be some changes due to a control placement error and a few uploads issues. Please report any problems asap and we’ll upload the final results later this week.

Only 5 days to the next event at Paradise farm so remember to enter if you haven’t already.

Heading south from CP23

Online entry for High Paradise Farm closes at midnight Thursday 3rd, but discounted entries end at midnight tonight!

Event HQ
The next event HQ is in the sports centre that was part of the old Raincliffe School in Scarborough. Travelling into Scarborough can be tricky on a Bank Holiday, although the later start will probably miss most of the day trippers. The fastest way to the HQ will be on the A170 over Racecourse road. Avoid the A64 on Seamer Road as this always backs up with Beach traffic. There is a back route to the HQ through Forge Valley turning off at East Ayton. If traffic is heavy this will be the fastest way. See the map below.

Parking
There should be enough parking at the HQ as parts of the old school can be used. Ignore the Buses Only and No Entry markings on the road as these are from the one-way system used when the school was open. The White Rose Orienteering event should have finished by the time we are arriving however competitors from this event may still be around. Marshals will guide you to available spaces and parking is always available on Lady Edith’s Drive to the West of the entrance if full in the grounds.

Event Information
The start is at the entrance to the school with the finish further up the drive, both will be well marked and manned on the day. The course was checked today (Wednesday) and riding conditions are very good. There is one small ford that is ridable. There is rain forecast in the next few days but this shouldn’t impact the course. The cinder track (Route 1 cycleway) from Ravenscar to Scarborough can be busy with dog walkers and other cyclists, particularly towards Scarborough, if you use this track during the event please be careful of other track users as it can be a very fast in places.
More specific map information will be given at sign on, the course map is in the previous post
