Summer Series

Fun, friendly events with something for everyone on Wednesday evenings. Beginners are very welcome – bring a friend, bring the family, challenge yourself learning new skills and get fit(ter) in the process.

Storm damage/fellin6 is still playing havoc with some areas but all events will have at least 2 courses making them suitable for beginners and experienced alike:

  • easy (all on paths – white/yellow standard – up to 2km)
  • technical as-hard-as-we-can-make-it, style and length depending on what we can make of the area but aiming for somewhere between 3km and 5km
  • maybe some technical training twist options for the tech course
