Overview

The 790 acre reservoir was opened in 1952 and much of the surrounding woodland is a Site of Special Scientific Interest. The race is based at the Sailing Club and provides an opportunity to either compete at the Sprint distance (Non Drafting) or the Olympic distance. A great family weekend with a fast rolling bike, which promises to be a PB course. The event has been taking place since 2006 and in previous years has hosted major championship events.
