I remember that Wetherby 10 miler course, the U-turn was just about at Long Marston. It was often a bit dodgy because just over the brow of a rise - motor car drivers did not have much time to see you.

I've ridden many a slow early season medium gear 10 miler on there.

I don't think there are any dead U-turn time trial courses any more.

I've ridden up to watch it a few times, but not been for about 2 years

I think Mandy Parker has a lot to do with it, she's also heavily involved with the 'Yorkshire Cyclo-Cross Association' too

Seacroft Wheelers are another big supporter/assister at the grass-track too


Here's Steve Barnes (Seacroft) about to outsprint Tony Jones (Featherstone RC - also my club), dating from 2009
