The Day 4 organising team would like to make you aware of the following:

• You MUST follow travel directions in programme to avoid meeting busses travelling back to Forres on the narrow roads
• The parking and arena are part of a working farm so please …
  • Take extra hygiene precautions before eating; cows are usually in the field
  • Keep out of the areas cordoned off for safety reasons
  • Be quiet near the horses which may be near the walking route to the arena
• Cyclists are not permitted to bike to the starts
• Please stay on the taped routes to Starts/from Finish to avoid straying into the Day 4 and Day 5  competition areas
• Public –  Culbin is a popular area for locals and tourists and dogs are often off lead. Please respect their right of access, particularly around the White Start and route to Green/Blue/Red Starts
• Toilets – a few portable toilets will be sited close to where the route to the Green/Blue/Red Start splits off from White Start route.
• Bag Drop Zone– There is a signed “at your own risk” and uncovered bag drop zone on the way to the Starts which is passed on the way back from the Finish.
• There is NO ROOM to gather or spectate at or near the Finish. Please arrange to meet friends and family back in the Arena. However, there is provision for young juniors to be met near the Finish. Please ask at the Pre-Start when leaving the Arena for details.
• Insects – Be aware there are some mosquito-type bitey bugs in some areas of Culbin, including near the String Course; deterrent spray recommended.
• Shuttle Bus (return) – is scheduled at 5 and 35 mins past the hour with the last bus due to leave the bus-stop in Kintessack at 17:10.
• Grateful thanks to members of these non-Scottish Clubs for enhancing todays workforce – BOK, DEE, HALO, SLOW and HAVOC.

• Any Pre-ordered merchandise uncollected at the end of today will be put on sale on Day 5.

Looking ahead:

• M21E and W21E have a reverse seeded start on the final day based on times after the first four days. We hope to publish the updated start times as early as possible this afternoon.
