Start Point The start will be made from the track heading uphill in front of the club house between the two lollipop signs. It is a public golf course here, so you are kindly requested to keep noise to a minimum, and to park with careful consideration. Please be sure to arrive a reasonable period of time before the start for registration, preparation and briefing. The race will start without you.
Parking Parking must only be done in the Quarry Car Park, and not under any circumstances in the Golf Club Car Park. Park very carefully. This is a Golf Course. Be quiet, do not walk over tees and greens and respect the golfers concentration (they need it, alot, I understand). Please visit the clubhouse for coffees etc - we are here with their permission so its good to give them some trade. Please park as close to other cars as possible in order to squeeze the maximum number of cars in here. If the Quarry car Park gets full, then you must go back down to the grass by the main road. There is often a walkers event here on the same day as our relay, so be prepared to be moved on by marshalls. Where possible, share cars. The number of cars we use is the prime limit to the number of teams we can host. Try to avoid having to do a car drop - better to get a team mate to drive on your behalf and meet you at the other end. Parking is fairly plentiful at Seven Springs in the huge open car park on the A436 100 metres North East of the end of this stage - that's where to leave your car.
Race Profile A nice relaxing stage - short and not too hilly, other than Ravensgate Hill which tries to balance things out.
