#NOTE
1. The course is not the advertised T102 starting in Crathorne. It is T102/1, starting on Thimbleby Lane, which is southbound on the A19 approx 2.5 miles south of the Tontine and a few hundred yards north of the Haynes Arms. Best access is from the A19. The junction is signposted Thimbleby 1.
2. There are currently roadworks on the return (northbound) section of the course. The planned status on Saturday is that both lanes will be open but there will be a 400 metre stretch on which the top tarmac will not have been laid. This section must be ridden with extra care. Further details will be available in the HQ before the event
3. It is approximately 4 miles from the recommended parking area to the event start.
