We want to have all our riders aware of where they are going, what we require of them, and make them fully aware of any risks involved. Your safety is our number one priority. We will no longer accept riders signing on the day of the event. Please do not ask as refusal will cause disappointment.

Please leave the lorry stop area clean and tidy. We are relying on the goodwill of Applegreen to run our events.

Your race numbers will be placed on a numbered board in a clear transparent plastic bag at the entrance to the lorry stop. Please remove the bag with the correct number inside and when you have finished your event place your race number back in the bag provided and place in the bucket beside the board.
