The Start - we're delighted that we are now able to return to the much loved start area that we last used 8 years ago, so look out for a revised entrance area at the western end of Blackbushe airport.
Online entries are open until late Tuesday - don't forget to bring your receipt with you and then you can go straight to Entry Express at Race Registration and avoid the queues.
New Category - there is now a Super Veteran category for all you riders over 60, which means that Grand Veteran is now for 50-59s only.
Entry on the Day is, as always, available and we look forward to seeing you next week!
