Event Guide

Parking

There is only limited parking at the event HQ; the carpark at the Best Western Compass Inn (see map above) will be used as overflow parking for competitors. This is located on the right as you approach Tormarton village.

Please attempt to park here and ride to the HQ (about 1km) rather than driving into and parking in the village as the main road through the village is on the race route. Please keep left on the race route so as to not obstruct teams that are racing; teams on the race route have priority over you. Under no circumstances should you park on the race route.

Please be aware that Best Western Compass Inn customers have priority in the overflow car park – please listen to the marshalls who will guide you to parking.
