Sadly received the following this evening:

Dear Peter,

Event Cancellation

It is with huge disappointment that we have been forced to cancel this years Wild Boar 24 mountain bike event due to lack of entries. In order for the event to run we required 150 teams of 4 or 5. We currently have less than 40.

We are cancelling the event prior to the actual closing date as our suppliers require 4 weeks notice of cancellation in order for us to avoid a financial penalty.

We would like to thank all the competitors who have entered and apologise for the obvious disappointment you will be feeling. We are also aware that you will have been investing time training for this event.

Full refunds will be issued to all entrants.

Thank you

Wild Boar 24 Organising Team

Hey ho, looks like it’ll be the Pat Adams event on Cannock Chase for me that weekend then.
