DON’T WORRY YOU WILL NOT GET SHOT IN THE DANGER AREA !
We return to Ash Ranges again this season with an extended and tweaked course, because we listen and care about what you the riders have to say, Ash was introduced as a brand new venue to Enduro racing in the area last series on what is normally a live military firing range, except for a short period over Christmas when there is totally open access. So if you wish to ride here in future just a word of caution - don't enter the Ranges when the RED FLAGS are flying or you'll get shot! Our thanks go to the Army for giving us exclusive access.
On your travels round the course last time you'll have noticed a distinct lack of trees, but instead, far reaching views to Guildford, London and even Canary Wharf under the clear blue sky. Much of the area is being returned to heath land to encourage birdlife and so many of the trees you were supposed to wiggle round were suddenly chopped down, but we have spent some time dodging the bullets and improving the course for your enjoyment. So this time round expect a little bit more open views across Surrey and Hampshire and a few more close encounters amongst the trees.
Our sincere thanks goes out to ALL of our sponsors and especially to our headlining sponsor Merida Bikes with whom we could not have made this series as good as it has been so far. The Army CU, Gorrick and Merida Bikes hope you all enjoy the Series and the variety of courses and terrain each venue has to offer.
Course Distance approx: 7-8 Miles
On a closing note, sorry to say there were a lot of gel and energy bar wrappers littering all course’s throughout the series. We will not tolerate such littering at any of our events, just that mindless action is enough for the landowners to ban use of a venue along with other facilities which are provided by the MOD and we are sure you would be disappointed along with us not to ride or race on this exclusive land.
There is also a lot of wildlife including cattle on the training areas and you wouldn't want them eating your discarded wrappers with potential dire consequences? So please, put the empties in your pocket as you did take them out of your pocket, so take them home with you, or if you feel the need to discard them, attempt to aim them at the bins which will be provided strategically around the course. Thank you.
