This is a real “spit ‘n’ sawdust” hill race. Short, sharp, no frills, nobody telling you “you’re
awesome” (‘cause you ain’t!) 

No sweeper either, it’s devil take the hindmost.
ENTRY ON THE NIGHT ONLY (Max 90) CASH ONLY
HQ – Car boot, in parking field
Toilets – None
Pins – If I can find some.
Water at Finish. (Past its ‘best before date’ but water’s water)
Prizes – 1,2,3 Male/Female, but only if they look like they’ve tried. Nothing else. Not even
for the old and infirmed.
First Aid – Maybe. But there’s plenty of hot tar available.
Race Referee – None. Issues sorted out behind the barn.
Timing – Watch, pen, fag packet.
Compulsory kit – A waterproof/windproof jacket MIGHT be required. Bring it ! Don’t try and
‘second guess’ the RD!
Route – Start/Finish as marked. The route is basically unmarked. (But see below)
The route follows the wall/fence field boundary southwards, on an obvious rough
track/path, all the way around the west flank of Mynydd Troed to CP 1, near the gate to the
lane. From here, you turn north and climb any line to the summit Trig. From the Trig, you
can take any line back to the Finish. ONLY the lower part of the ridge descent is marked,
(purple on the map) to the Finish. You DO NOT have to follow it.
Don’t get lost, or be late back. There is a particularly snarly Badger or two in these parts . . .
