The time trial course takes in just over 1km of exciting terrain with rugged grassy sections, steep uphill’s, tight turns and flowing downhill’s. It has a bit of everything.
The fastest time overall will receive the Frank Batchelor Memorial Trophy, hand-made by a Warminster craftsman. The Challenge is divided into five age groups with a fantastic trophy, also fabricated in Warminster, to be presented to the winner of each category.
In 2012 we have re-designed the course for younger riders ‘cos that steep uphill is just a little too tough!
The Course Record was set in 2010 by Dan Irons with a time of 2:27, but the current champion is his younger and more attractive brother!
The Course……….
