Hammy Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 Hi, I am looking at organising a run on the Sunday morning to the Curborough Sprint* to watch the lads playing. Looking to start from the Clock Shardlow - trip will be relatively short to get to the circuit mid morning, then do yuor own thing - look out for charity carb fettling! My initial thoughts for a route are - Ashby (calling at Tesco for pickups) - Measham- Tamworth (B5493) turn up towards Alrewas on A513 then cross country to Curborough - but I am open to offers if anyone has a favourite road. I'm also not 100% sure where the course is -postcode/address anyone . Can you post if interested and or discuss. [* for those that don't know what a "sprint" is it involves starting off ( bit like we do from the traffic lights) and going around a few corners then stopping again -althought there seems to be no rush to stop at the end. This is a bit like a race to the corner shop really. Some sprinters have been known to do more than 5 miles in a year ( or season as they like to call it) and one or two have launch control to make the starting off a bit easier. Worth a look apparently , I guess there will be burger vans too.] Quote

Hammy Posted June 20, 2008 Author Posted June 20, 2008 ** I'm cancelling the idea of a run for this ** - I now can't actually make Curborough on Sunday ! Quote
