Parking
The large number of entries will mean that parking space will be under pressure. Please park with consideration to other riders and other road users, remember the HQ area is in a lay by on a public road. To maintain our good relationship with the owners and staff at the Strickland Arms strict observance of regulation 12 is expected from all riders and spectators. Over the period of the race the coming and going of riders should ensure sufficient parking for all. It would help considerably if riders do not arrive too soon for the later starts and early starters depart a soon as possible.
Please do not park in lay bys on A590 or on the old A6.
