Map / Terrain
For those who are familiar with Ightham, we are using the Western section of the map. The northern part of the map is peppered with small contour features, pits, gullies etc. whereas the South is more open.
The race area is bisected by the A25 as well as some other small roads. Please exercise caution when crossing all road, particularly the A25. There is pavement on the N side, and a verge on the S side so there is no need to burst onto the carriageway. The road is straight so it should be easy to see the vehicles (and for them to see you), however, please do take your time, and cross safely.
Course Information
The course is a 90s and 100s format with two dog bones. One hour score.
