Bogriffie Cross - Ythan MTB Championships

[Chris C]

Bogriffie Cross, the race formerly known as the Ythan MTB Championships will be held on Sunday 28th December. Sign-on will be at 10.00am, practice starts at 10.30am. Please contact me if you wish to race, adults only:

The race will be 2 laps of a tricky little, energy sapping course as a TT format. Cross or MTB bikes needed. I need a volunteer for time keeping please.

The top level racing will be followed by a strict diet of bacon rolls, sausage rolls, tea and coffee with maybe the odd bit of booze served from the Ythan gazebo. There will be changing facilities (my garage) and a hose pipe supplying the famous Bogriffie Spring water. Entry to race HQ will be on a strict "no mud" basis.

All of the above will/could change at the last moment...
