Description
Event HQ and Parking
The event headquarters is the Arkendale Community Hall, 51 Moor Lane, Arkendale HG5 0QT. Numbers, signing-on sheet, and the result board will be located here. The HQ will be open from 12:00. There will be refreshments for riders after their ride. Please remember to return your number. Some parking is available in the field across the road from HQ. Please do not park in the Blue Bell car park. For those who require parking nearer the start/finish, there are a number of places off the side of the A168.
It is approximately 2 miles from the HQ to the start, so allow plenty of time to get there. From HQ turn left and proceed along Marton Lane to A168. Turn right, and continue along the A168.
The start is on the left in about 1/2 mile at the entrance to Rabbit Hill Park (HG5 0RB).
Please note there is NO PARKING at the start or finish. Since last year the start is now the entrance to Rabbit Hill Park and cars are likely to turn into and out of the park, please be mindful of this when coming to the start and do not congregate in this area.
Please carefully read the risk assessment for the course which will be displayed at the HQ. Safety, not performance is the first priority
In the interests of your own safety Cycling Time Trials strongly advise you to wear a HARD SHELL HELMET that meets an internationally accepted safety standard. In accordance with Regulation 15 junior competitors must wear protective HARD SHELL HELMETS. It is recommended that a working rear light, either flashing or constant, is fitted to the machine in a position visible to following road users and is active whilst the machine is in use. When riding, give priority to traffic from your right; signal clearly to other road users the course you intend to take.
Marshals will be positioned at major road junctions and at roundabouts to aid the rider and are not there to stop traffic.
