For those who need a daily fix and look forward to a Sprint event, we offer a limited entry event which does not count towards the main competition. For this event, we take you back to Forres which was used for WOC 2015 Individual Sprint final. Forres is a beautiful town and regularly features amongst the Scotland in Bloom prize-winners; it boasts some intricate alleyways between older buildings and some newer estate housing with park and woodland areas.
The start window of two hours (from 1:00pm until 3:00pm) is after the TrailO at Roseisle and before the MTBO event so that you can take part in multiple events.
Preliminary Details
Thanks to all the landowners who have made today’s event possible.
