This friendly event has comprehensive facilities including a riders' HQ, trade stands to browse in the Arena, hot showers and plenty of toilets. Quaver catering will be open from early until late.
Because we have such amazing sponsors and partners who you can check out torqinyoursleep.com here, not only are there great trophies and prizes for the category winners on the podium, but also loads of spot prizes to be won at the main prize giving.
Entry is strictly by online pre-entry only at www.xcracer.com and will close on Friday 18 August. Pairs and Teams can be entered with just a name, as they don't need to be finally confirmed until the day of the event when you sign on and collect your Registration Packs.
