FINAL ROUND - Merida Brass Monkeys - Sunday 26 January
by Jane Lucas, 14 Jan 14.
Entry is busy for this year’s final round of the Brass Monkeys Winter Series so, if you have been doing the Series, please don’t leave it too late to enter. Otherwise, if you haven’t had a go at a Brass Monkey enduro yet, why not enter and see what everyone’s been talking about? We have categories for all ages and abilities. Full details are here Merida Brass Monkeys website and you can also read previous Round reports and rider’s blogs on XCRacer.
We’re hard at work already on the Round 4 course at TUNNEL HILL, Pirbright, Hants (Nearest Postcode GU12 5RR) which is everyone’s favourite big loop enduro venue, set in mixed woodland and open heath land on well draining soil.
There’ll be fantastic support once again from headline sponsor Merida, who will again be bringing along some of their great new bikes on display for you to have a look at and try out – so don’t forget some I.D. if you want to do so. When you collect your number you’ll receive a free MuleBar or Gel to keep you fuelled whilst riding, Little Dean will be on hand if your bike needs some attention and the 1st Gear Cycles trade stand can help you with any of your other cycling requirements.
The HEATED MARQUEE will again be the focal point of the sponsors Arena, giving you a cosy place to chat to other riders, keep an eye on the timings, have some hot food and drink and be part of the Round 4 and Series prize givings at the end - which will also see some spot prizes given out too. Check out the superb Series trophies courtesy of Four4th Lights.
