New "Little Big Mountain Challenge" U16 (TBC)
The inaugural 2025 event had a couple of hiccups just before the start - lessons learned.
We ran it as a ride, not a race, but a good time was had by all. See video below!
2026 Event is tentatively planned for Sunday Oct 4th 2026.
Format is to be determined, but will probably run along the lines of:
Staggered Start: ALL TBC
09:00am - 4 lappers start
11:00 - 3 lappers start
12:00 2 lappers start
12:10 -"Little Big Mountain Challenge" start (TBC - Gt1/Stonecrop 2 to 3 Bears/Bracken)
01:00pm - 1 lappers start
2026 - Introduction Teams: Guys/Gals/Mixed
