SUMMARY:MOUNTAIN BIKE COMPETITION
DESCRIPTION:We are very excited to invite our schools to take part in our Mountain Bike Competition which will take place on Thursday\, 4th June\, from  9.30-12.00 at Norton Village  Hall open fields\, GL2 9LJ. \nTHE TEAMS\nThe competition is for students from Years 5 and 6.\nTeams must be made up of 4 riders with 2 boys and 2 girls making up the team. \nEVENT FORMAT\nThe competition will be run on grass. It will be based on a team relay challenge to complete a set number of laps of the designated course (approx. 800m in length). The team completing the required number of laps first will win. Each member of the team will complete a lap (in turn) and hand over to the next team member until all laps have been completed. The number of laps to be completed by each rider will be decided on the day and take into account prevailing weather conditions and the length of the course. There will also be an open entry Individual Time Trial Race (1 lap) for any team members to take part in on the day – this will be a separate competition with medals to be won in addition to the team event.\nImportant note: There will be 1 bike allocated to each school. It is important\, therefore\, that the team members are approximately the same height. This will avoid seat adjustment between riders during the team race. Whilst this is permitted\, teams that have to undertake this task will be putting themselves at a disadvantage.  \nRiders can only take part in the races with the bikes provided by the organisers. \nEmail bh@gssn.co.uk to register your interest. \nLocation address:\nNorton Village Hall\nOld Tewkesbury Road\nNorton\nGloucester\nGL2 9LJ \nhttps://www.nortonvillagehall.co.uk/contact-us/
