Parking
Please use public transport as far as possible. York is well served by train and bus. We would recommend car drivers use the park and ride system, of which there are several around the city outer ring road, Parking in central York is expensive.
St Peter’s school is easily accessible via the Rawcliffe park and ride, the 2a stops at St Peters school and the 2 stops a very short walk away. The school is well serviced by nearby public carparks.
Terrain
Note that due to the urban nature of this event and the many roads, competitors under 16 are only permitted to enter courses 6 or 7 that avoid the local roads. Please note that course 6 involves one or two very minor roads and the riverside. Course 7 is completely enclosed. Please enter juniors on a suitable course.
