The "Bunts Blast" Putoline 4 Hour Series
July 14th - Pinxton Nott's
Round three of the rideoffroaduk Putoline backed 4 hour series heads for Pinxton in Nottinghamshire on July 14th. "Bunts Blast" Hare & Hounds XC was a huge success in 2011 and the ride team aim to go one step further for our 2013 visit to the venue.
The course will consist of good open going; the track will be cut into the crop fields giving a fast flowing feel to this year's blast. Woodland sections and old railway embankments will make up the remainder of the lap keeping the technical side of things in check.
Sunday 9.00am sees the Youth Class riders running in a 2 hour event, then at 11.30am all adult riders will be treated to a Le Mans style start. Championship battles are now reaching the critical point, with only a handful of points separating the top spots in each class the rivalry will be great to see amongst fellow competitors. There are classes for all abilities, solo 4 hour iron men, or by far the most popular choice is always the two man team class, one rider on track the other in the change over area, both riders share same race number or even same bike, riders must "tag" their team mate to release them onto the course during rapid changeovers. A really good relaxed atmosphere for all the family to enjoy. Generous camping area opens from Saturday 12 Noon.
