There has been a fair amount of press interest in the Fowlmead/Gravesend weekend. As I can't attend (I'll be 'between cars'), I would be grateful if members can keep an eye open for Press presence and let me have feedback post event. Ta.

As agreed with the Competition Secretary on Sunday, Fiona and I will be organising this event. Details to follow shortly but, in line with the Comp Sec's wishes/suggestion, expect a loooong race.
Maybe whoever is organising Gravesend the next day (not us!) could contrast the long race at Fowlmead with various shorter races, as this would make full use of the versatility of the circuit and make for a varied weekend?

The Schedule for racing at Fowlmead Country Park CT14 0BF on Saturday 26th July is as follows:
10:00 am - Approximate Commencement of Signing On 10:45 am - Signing On Closes - Please ensure you are signed on by then 11:15 am - Slow Race - 90 minutes + 1 Lap Clockwise 01:30 pm - Fast Race - 90 minutes + 1 Lap Clockwise
Please ensure you are on the start line in good time and ready to race and that you have somebody to time you. We've got a lot to fit in so your co-operation is appreciated. (We are running a fast & slow race because Fiona and I would both like to race as well.) As an experiment, can anyone planning on racing at Fowlmead please post here or PM me with your Name, Race Number and Bike Description, so that I can enter you into the race software before the event, to save time on the day, and also to have an idea of attendance. And don't forget, Camping will be available at Fowlmead on both Friday and Saturday nights. Cost: £5 per tent per night Any questions/objections?

Geoff - you shouldn't shout so much, you've gone blue in the face. The typeface.

I know of about six people who are planning to camp, so I'd guess at around 10 altogether.
The site is going to be where it was last year, on that patch of grass north of the track. Pay for the camping at race sign-on on Saurday morning (£5 per pitch per night). I don't know about parking, although I'd assume that if you park with your tent there will be no charge. |

Cheers
I didn't go last year so I'm not knowledge about location of said patch of grass although I'm sure I will be relocated if I get it wrong. |
