NEXT RACE - SATURDAY 23RD JUNE 2012

The date of this years event had to be moved from the provisional 16th June due to the passage of the Olympic Flame through our region.

For those potential competitiors who want to know if they (at work) would be affected by the route of the flame then I've checked it and it will be as follows:

Friday 22nd - Windemere, Lancaster and Blackpool

Saturday 23rd - Blackpool, Preston, Burnley, Rochdale and Bury

Sunday 24th - Manchester, Oldham, Huddersfield, Bradford, Skipton and Leeds.

Hope this helps !

Gary.
