When and Where
The event is in Marum, in the northern part of the Netherlands. It’s about a 2.5 hour drive (with no traffic) from Hoek van Holland or over 6 hours from Calais.
The event is on a Saturday, but as with last year we recommend that people travel to arrive on Thursday evening, so that Friday can be used for preparation.
Who is organising this ?
The team captain this is Malcolm Herbert (who is also the ECMO rep for Wales) and he can be contact on 07720 079845 or malcolm.hungerstone@gmail.com for more information
If you would like to help organise and manage the team please get in touch as there can be a lot of work to be done on the day.
Sponsors
We already have some sponsors who will help with the entry and travel costs and we welcome anyone who help with covering the costs of what can be an expensive event.
Selection
Based on previous experience, we’ve always had plenty of riders in the 50+ category, with less for the older rider categories. This year we will aim to make the team announcements in July, well ahead of the team submission dates on August 21st, allowing enough time for people to book travel. We will be confirming some rider names before then, but may choose to run riders ‘out-of-class’ as the final team selection becomes clearer.
As well as simple eligibility, we will look at performance, commitment to the Welsh Championship and willingness to travel and assist the team as important criteria for selection.
