The first event of Winter Series is in Ripon on Saturday November 12th.
Online entry open now – closes midnight Thursday
Registration: 0915 – 1015
Starts: 0930 – 1030
Venue: South Lodge pub, Harrogate Road, Ripon. HG4 1ST. The pub has a large car park, if it is full please park on Whitcliffe Lane opposite the pub. Toilets are available in the pub on arrival, please order food from the menu before riding.
The competition area consists of complex minor roads with some good bridleways; the busy A61 bisects the area, most of it is OOB but the safest places to cross will be identified on the map.
If using a smartphone don’t forget to load the course onto the phone at home; if using a smartwatch or Garmin you need to synchronise with satellites before approaching the start. The finish is at the E side of the car park, away from Harrogate Road in case you pass the pub before you finish.
map updated Tuesday 9th – now with special note about a slimy lane!

Not sure if you are aware but Western Lane from Markington is still closed due to the slime trap.
Hi John – thanks – will alert David Day.
Hi John, the problem with this ‘closure’ is that local riders will know it can be used carefully. I will add a note to the map to make this clear but that you use it at your own risk, Cheers Tim
Hi John, do we order food from the pub on the day or beforehand? I phoned the pub and they said they were going to send one of the organisers a menu.
Hi Ian – order on the day will be fine I think. Apparently they were going to send us a menu but haven’t yet. I’ll post it on here if they do send it today (Thursday). Dave
Thanks Dave
