King of the Hill

New for 2012 - the King Of The Hill bike race!

It's a 1km downhill bike race (bikes with pedals, that is!) complete with jumps and chicane(s). There'll be 3 heats of 4 cyclists, then a final for the 3 heat winners plus 1 fastest runner-up. The overall winner will be presented with a trophy and will be named this years' King Of The Hill.

The minimum age for the bike race is 16. All bikes must have a working brake on at least one wheel, and riders must wear a helmet and suitable protective clothing - not shorts or short sleeves! The entry fee is £20 and we'll post more details on the site as it comes in.
