Rider notes for Naseby TT

Tuesday’s TT gives club riders the chance to get an early feel for the roads which will be used by the N&DCA Open event on 17th August. This is a very quiet rural 10 course with particular challenges and, as ever, it is up to riders to familiarise themselves sufficiently with the course and the risk assessment .

Some things to note:

Between the start and the first turn there is a sharp descent past the Battlefield Viewpoint. The surface of the road on the left hand side has a longitudinal and potholed ridge about a metre from the edge of the road. This has been clearly marked with yellow paint to help riders.

A second descent leads to the marshalled turn left onto Longhold Road, which has bumpy sections and, again, some highlighted potholes.

After the S bend leaving Sibbertoft Village onto the “runway straight” there are highlighted potholes in the first third or so of that long, long, long road…..

Depending on the nature of your warm-up, riding to the start from Clipston Recreation Ground Pavillion may take you 15 minutes or so. Please collect your number in time for your start.

 

You can sign up online until Sunday 12th at 6pm here
