TrailTrax Surrey Hills Preview
by Jon Lucas, 30 Jan 07.
It only seems like yesterday that we were celebrating the Christmas holidays and enjoying our regular season end TrailTrax Navigator event at Eversley.
Now here we are already at our first event of 2007. We return to the Leith Hill area of the North Downs in Surrey to enjoy the hospitality of the Parrot at Forest Green on Sunday 4 February 2007.
This area of the North Downs offers an excellent area for exploring, as you search for the checkpoints on trails that take the worst of any weather in their stride, thus ensuring a memorable day out even at this time of year. Start times are from 8.45am to 10.30am for the 180 minute schedule and from 10am to 11am for the easier 120 minute schedule. You choose how many checkpoints and what route, so whatever your level of fitness you'd enjoy this event.
The Parrot Inn offers great food and real ales and will make us very welcome. Full details as always on the website and remember you can enter ONLINE now!
