The venue will be well know to many having hosted numerous races including rounds of the Southern XC Series and promoting club West Drayton MBC have been busy building new sections including fresh singletrack to spice things up for the regulars. The course drains well and the course has been in great shape recently so the recent rain should not have any major impact on the tracks. The venue boasts hard-standing car parking and decent toilet facilities.
Action starts at 7:45pm, 15 minutes later than originally planned to ensure the races will be help in complete darkness from the outset.
