I'll come and say hello, fecked if I'm mental (or good) enough to ride round the jumps there, though I'm not convinced my car will get down the track to it without grounding out, so I'd probably cycle over

I've just had a look at the website and it looks like they're not using the jumpy bits, in which case it will be alright, twisty up through the woods and less twisty down.

You can have a weekend at the seaside, in December, pack your thermals, it'll either be dry and cold, or wet and cold.

We've had a couple of really good days out there, and we made pretty good improvement in our jumping skillz.

It's a bit far for us to day run it though👍

Cool, should be fun I think - certainly didn't think at the start of the year that I'd be considering entering a mtb event!

Do you have somewhere to store your bikes where they can't be stolen / tampered with?
If not you can store them overnight in my garden.
I'd go for the Felixstowe Premier Inn if I were you, it's newer and nicer, close to the sea front and there are plenty of places to eat within walking distance.

Good stuff, hopefully wont be too muddy/freezing on the day.

Going to try and have a day there before just to remind myself where not to crash and see how the high roller 2 I've got on the front handles the less dry conditions.
