Details
| Description: | Sowerby Bridge is a small town with a canal and river running through it. The town extends up a hillside to the north and has several busy roads running through, Course lengths (subject to controlling); Course 1 – 6.8k 105m Course 2 – 5.5k 65m Course 3 – 5.0k 125m Course 4 – 3.0k 90m Course 5 – 2.4k 50m Course 6 – 2.4k 55m Course 7 – 1.0 25m “All courses will use the intricate campus style terrain of the school grounds at 1:1000 scale. Most courses will use up to 3 maps at different scales to give a really varied navigational experience. Although shorter than usual, all courses offer a fast and furious ‘sprint style section’ as well as a number of traditional longer legs with route choice and climb guaranteed! Course 7 for young juniors is entirely traffic free – contained within the school grounds. There will be plenty of controls out with courses visiting between 22 and 30! Full value for money! We can offer on site parking and changing rooms, toilets and showers, all within the school.†|
