Rendlesham Forest – Championship Round 1

14th February 2010

This vast forestry land neighbouring a disused army base has long been a favourite for TBEC members because of the shear scope this land has to offer in the past we have had events up to 12 miles long without crossing over itself.

The course is 90% woodland tracks some used some virgin but always winding with a fire track or two to use as the straights and a welcome rest, also on offer normally a couple of big gravel pits and the occasional pipeline!.

Suitable for the more confident novice who does not mind confined spaces or the dark (some areas get very dense) but also a favourite for some championship level riders.

(degree of difficulty 1-5 / 1 easy 5 hard) THIS A *4*

All entry forms (Regs), will be available for download from the 19th Jan.
