Q. What's the course like?

A. It is 10k (approx. 6 miles)
The fist 2 miles are a steady (not steep) climb up a Tarmac private road, then the course levels out for a mile on firm gravel. Next comes the lovely downhill on a gravel track, that is stunningly beautiful through the trees. Finally there is a level (ish) dirt track by the side of the beck to the finish.
