Yep, it's going to be in the South East. I sent a press release out, but since we don't have confirmed dates or a venue yet I suppose it wasn't a very compelling story ๐Ÿ™‚

In reality, it's probably quite like the World Cup. SSUK has been to Wales, Scotland, The North. Now it's time to have it near London!

I've set up a web page and a Twitter account for people who are interested in following it. The next major step will be to announce the date and venue which will go out to MTB websites too anyway.

Seat of the pants race organising - no venue, no date, just a location. I like it. Perhaps LVIS were trying to be too organised in advance...

Well there is a venue and a general date in mind, but it's not booked yet. Booking before finding out whether we would actually be running the race seemed a bit premature!

ahwiles - You can always just keep an eye on here!

And like I said, I don't know 100%, but I think the decision was mostly about sharing it around the country. We had Bristol not that long ago.

It's not going to be at a Gorrick venue (not that there's anything wrong with their races)

Surprise suprise stw not doing the press release! We had the same issue with the Euros! And we're still waiting for the prizes to arrive (looks out of the window to see the postman drive off again with no box!)

Good luck with the event, looking forward to next year should be a fantastic year for SS events.

Is there a rough idea of the date i.e. the month?

Probably the first half of August. SSWC is at the end of the month so we don't want to clash with that.

Excellent, no climbs this time then... 53x11 anyone?

(I'm going to live to regret that I suspect)

Yes, you are most certainly going to regret that statement!
