Hargroves QE Cyclefest

The Club is targeting a few commercial events during the year, and would like to get as big a group of riders as possible to attend. We’ll take along the Club gazebos and make each event a big ‘Club day out’.

There are two parts to this event, a demo day similar to our own Hargroves Demo day at the Croft Trail, and a race held into the evening.

The event runs from 3pm on Friday 13th May for camping, with the demo day and race held on Saturday 14th May. Camping is available on Saturday night also for those wanting to make a weekend of it.  There are 300 free camping pitches, allocated on a first-come-first-serve basis. So, why not make a weekend of it and enjoy the festival.

QE Cyclefest demo day

Hargroves will have a fleet of demo bikes available for you to take for a try on the Queen Elizabeth Country Park (QECP) trails, which offer a variety of routes for all culpabilities.

QECP Day Night Enduro

This enduro event is open to riders of all abilities – race in your age category or just pootle along as a ‘Fun’ category racer.

This event is billed as a ‘Day & Night Enduro’, so you’ll need lights.

Entry to the event went live on Saturday 12th March at 09:00. As this is not a team / relay event we will not be co-ordinating entries on behalf of members, so please enter direct on the Moredirt site
