Conham River CX is on the 25 December thanks to the Severn Road Club.

I know : how about the NHS sponsor the CX series and pay the council the ridiculous rider levy.
After all we are saving the NHS obesity and related illness money.
Oh yeah and as for that article stating that the ban is 'only temporary' well they tried the same thing last year.

Good call, Bristol. Should hopefully mean BRT2 is dead in the water too.
