		<description>hang on to your leggings....


All Senior classes plus U-14 and U-16 will compete over the full course, while the U-12 and U8/U10 riders will have their own courses.  

The start/finish area will be based on the fire road normally used for the start.  

The final drop down through the trees to the lake remains the same, though instead of riding onto the lake road, riders will take a different path to the finish via the small track that leads up to the stony bridge.
 
Racing gets underway with the U-8 event at 11am; 
this will be followed by the U-10s.
The U-12 race starts at 11.30am.  

The U-16 race sets off at noon followed at 12.01pm by the Sports Men and 12.02 by the Sports Women.  

The U-14 race starts at 12.03pm.  

The Elite Men’s event starts at 1.30pm followed by the 
Elite Women/Junior at 1.31pm, 
Experts 1.32pm, 
Masters 1.33pm and 
Vets at 1.34pm.  

While there is no official practice on Saturday, riders are free to take a look at their own risk. 

 On Sunday sign on will be open from 9.30am.  Only riders signed on will be permitted access to the course on Sunday. 

 Due to the constantly changing weather conditions, race laps will be decided closer to the race after consultation between the orgainsers and the race commissaire.</description>

		<description>The poster says this stars 11am? Does that mean course opens at or sports races start at 11am?  Nothing on Banbridge CC website I can see.</description>
