ZHI_Chris Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 (edited) Hello, everyone.I want to join the "Bracken Rocks Cup" UK National BikeTrial Championship Rnd 1, i know, the venue is Bracken Rocks, Matlock, Derbyshire.But i am in Cambridge, and no car. So i have to go there on 14th, i wonder is there a hotel near the venue, not very expensive. And which is the nearest railway stop to the venue.How can i join the competing? What shall i do? Is there some rules for the bike, must be 6 gears or not?Thanks very much!! Edited April 4, 2007 by zhi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Is that the one on the corner, just before you turn down that side road off the main road to get to the venue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
