Events news

With the aftermath of the floods still affecting travel, and more bad weather forecast, the Ambleside urban night event scheduled for this evening is cancelled and will be rescheduled in the new year. The Postponed PFO night event is now pencilled in for Saturday 16th January. This is the same day as the SROC Club Handicap at Low Park Wood (not 16th June as in the latest Newsletter!). The Handicap will be timed to allow SROC night O enthusiasts the chance of competing in both events.

Saturday 5th December event postponed

Due to the extreme weather forecast received today for Saturday 5th December, PFO has decided to CANCEL / POSTPONE the Nick O'Pendle event on Saturday night.

The peak of the passing storm coincides exactly with our event.  Heavy rain and high winds averaging 50mph, gusting 90mph.  However our daytime Level-C event on Sunday 6th on Pendle Hill (from Barley) will go ahead as the forecast is for sunshine and winds from 10mph to 35mph.

Since the Nick O'Pendle event is fully planned with maps printed we will find another date in the programme.

Preston results

Results for the most recent Night Street League event may be viewed here. The last event of 2015, and 5th in the series of ten, will be at Wigan on Wednesday 16th December. Santa hats are optional, details here.

Street League event 4, Preston Central

We are a bit spoiled this year with new or extended maps. This evening's event had a lot of Preston not previously run on in a street event, and included the City Centre. The venue seemed popular and the weather was kind. RouteGadget is now ready to receive your route.
