The draft schedule for the day is below. The start time for the night stages is not final yet, and may be changed on the day. If by some miracle it's sunny, we might have to make it later to ensure it's proper dark.
The Day Night Enduro race will consist of a number of timed stages on the hill, riders will make their own way between the stages. You will have a maximum of 4 hours to complete the stages, starting at 15:00 and returning by 19:00. Riders will leave from the start in 30 second intervals. It will be your responsibility to look after your timing tag (“dibber”) during the event getting it checked-in at each stage start and finish where a marshal will be present.
There are two stages, these will be raced during the day, then repeated after the sun goes down. The second run will commence at 17:00. Lights are recommended, and riders must take the safety precautions detailed below.
At the end of the race hand your dibber to the timing tent to get your times for the day. Please make sure you check in at the timing/registration tent if you decide not to complete the race.
