RDFCC Winter Warmer

MTB XC , Gloucestershire – Sunday, 04 Jan 2015

Entry powered by British Cycling
Supported by British Cycling

Event Summary

Event Overview

XC racing in the Forest of Dean open to all riders of all ages.

A chance to burn off the excesses of the christmas period and play with any new toys recieved from father christmas. We hope you can join us for some XC fun to blow out the cobwebs before getting back to school/work in the New Year Please join us to see what the FoD can offer and support the club.

The 2km approx course will be similar to the circuit used for last year's junior races using the spectator friendly start and finish area, situated on the loop itself. It uses part of the Freeminers trail and a section of the RDFCC enduro in reverse. It also incorporates a section prepared especially for our events and a previously lightly used track (only ridden by a few locals). The full route is 90% single track incorporating fast rolling sections, rooty ascents/descents and an exciting optional drop off.

The younger riders (U8,U10) will use the same start/finish area but a shorter circuit where parents will easily be able to watch and encourage their young ones for most of the lap. 

Prizes from BC for younger riders. Bragging rights with possible fame and fortune for everyone one else. Cash prizes for 1st and 2nd if sufficient entries in that class.


Under 8's will need a mountain bike with at least 20" wheels and gears. over 18s can also ride 20" if they really want to, but it's not recommended.

The exact course will be dependant on ground conditions on the day.

Happy christmas, we hope to see you there.
