UPDATED – QECP 2023 Riders Briefing
Southern Enduro South East Rd3 – 16th July 2023 – Headdown woodland, Buriton, Petersfield GU31 5SN
This is your riders briefing as there will not be one on the day.
Updates:
- The area where the race village is situated has patchy phone reception, please bring cash for the food, coffee, merchandise etc…
- There is a weather warning for high winds Saturday evening, this drops on Sunday so won’t affect the race. We will inspect the course after the high winds bit if you spot any tape down in practice please inform a marshal and we will get it repaired.
- Its important that you start from the race village and be set off at your start time by the race village start marshal, not at your cars or the top of the hill this is extremely important so we know who is on the course. If this keeps happening we will have to start adding time penalties.
Some Race rules reminders:
No re-runs for mechanicals or crashes.
No derestricted E-bikes
No assisting other riders to the top of the hills with E-bikes
All riders must start in their categories and at the race village not their cars or the top of the hill.
