Parking information: | Event parking and registration will be at the Hanson Shared Service Centre Chipping Sodbury: Ridgewood House, The Ridge, Chipping Sodbury, BS37 6AY. Enter the Hanson estate from the south via Drovers Way at: https://what3words.com/weeks.sang.things proceed north up the drive adhering to the applicable 20 or 10mph speed limit, depending on what part of the site you are in, and reverse park in one of the main car parks. A map of the available car parks is set out at the end of this document. Car parks A & B are closest to Assembly but even the furthest Car Park H is no more than a 5 min walk away. Please do not use Car Park C. Please do not arrive before 5pm unless you are part of the Organising or First Aid Teams as the car parks will still be occupied by the cars of Hanson employees prior to that time. There are several car parks on the site so please self-park sensibly adhering to the Hanson safety requirement that all cars must be reversed in, so they are facing forwards for when they leave. Assembly will be at https://what3words.com/unusually.cats.wasps to the immediate south of Ridgewood House. The Start will be approx. 200m from Assembly and the route to it will be marked with red & white tape. When moving around the site every precaution will be taken to ensure that cars and Orienteers remain segregated, but you should always remain vigilant to ensure your own safety and that of others. |
Dog rules: | Dogs are permitted on leads outside, under the supervision of a responsible adult. Please ensure any dogs behave responsibly and you have bags to pick up their poo and that any doggy discharges are removed from the site. |

Course description: | Urban footpaths, residential streets, and urban parks/woodland. It is advisable to stay on the paths in Ridge Wood as runability and undergrowth mapping is very generalised, and the undergrowth off the paths tends to be very challenging in July. Road shoes and shorts should be suitable. No metals studs (dobs) although if it has been raining something with some additional grip e.g., rubber lugs, may be more appropriate. Juniors (under 16) must be accompanied by a responsible adult on all courses. The short course should be suitable for beginners; help and advice will be available on the day. |
