RRP Midlands XC Series round three on Sunday

Riding is only allowed at Hanchurch Woods on race day – so make the most of it!

 

Singletrack junkies, technical gurus, downhill demons and climbing gods rejoice – the next round of the 2011 RRP Midlands XC Series is taking place at Hanchurch Woods, near Stoke-on-Trent on Sunday July 10. Entry is available on the day.

Nestled minutes from J15 of the M6, these private woods contain a plethora of trails that are mixed together to form a race course that has been many people’s favourite of the series in previous years.

The race is able to take place thanks to the permission of Lord Stafford and, at his request, the organisers will be collecting donations for Macmillan Cancer Support.

With singletrack that requires finesse and fast reactions, plus climbs that need skill rather than just brute power, Hanchurch is a true all-rounders course. It may be the Midlands, but it certainly isn’t flat!

And if the delights of the trail fairies work such as ‘the perimeter’ and ‘x-pro’s ledge’ aren’t enough to tempt you to race, you should still head over to cheer the local riders on as they compete to win the fastest Stoke Mtber trophy.

Please note: Riding is only allowed at Hanchurch Woods on race day. Please don’t jeopardise the future of the event by riding at the venue at any other time.

Finally, don’t forget your number board if you’ve already raced this year. Twelve and under races are entry on the day only. Follow us @midlands_xc on Twitter.
