Important!
A total of 151 entries were received for this event and the limit is set at 120. In accordance with CTT rules we must offer places to the fastest 120 after making 20% of the places available for women competitors. We then have to provide reserve places for the next fastest 10 of those who have indicated a willingness to be on the reserve list. Apart from the first 120 on the start sheet we will refund all entry fees, except those who actually ride as reserves. We ask anyone unable to ride to let us know as soon as possible in order that their places be allocated to riders on the reserve list.
