Relay Parking

02/04/2018

The weather has made parking at Beaudesert difficult. Sections earmarked for parking are now waterlogged. We will be parking you as best we can, so PLEASE bear with us while we try to get you into a sensible parking space.

If we cannot get everyone parked in time, we will look at delaying starts, but do not assume and rely on it.

Day 4 URGENT UPDATE

02/04/2018

The event is still on but parking is severely restricted and it is vital that you share cars.

Day 4 Car Parking IMPORTANT INFORMATION

01/04/2018

It will come as no surprise that the field used for Day 3 parking is unusable for Day 4!

All vehicles, except those with dogs, wil now be parked in Beaudesert itself.

Parking will be tight so PLEASE share cars wherever possible and obey the marshalls.

If you bring a dog, you will be directed to Day 3 parking and we will do our best for you.

JK tops

We thought that there would be some spare tops that we would be able to sell at the event. This is no longer the case as the supplier did not send them. If you haven't pre-ordered some merchandise and would still like some, then orders will be taken at Enquiries.

Elite Start Times and Bibs

Elites will wear the same bib for days 1 and 2 (unless they have a non-elite run on one of those days, where they will need to wear a non-elite bib). Start times for day 3 will be based on day 2 performances and will allocated at the end of day 2.

This is a reminder that you must have photo ID to gain entry to the day one event on MOD Stafford. You will be turned away otherwise.

Dogs on Relay Day

12/03/2018

Relay Day – good news for dog owners. 

We now have limited use of the parking field used for Day 3 parking which allows dogs.  HOWEVER, access to the field is through the Relay competition area, so the following conditions apply: 

  • You must arrive before 09:30
  • Competitors to leave area by 09:45
  • No pedestrian access to cars between 09:45 and 12:15
  • Exit only after 12:15

If you cannot meet all of these conditions, then please do not bring your dog.
