8 crews turned up for the start at champions garage for a 57 mile blatt , back and forth across the  North Yorks Moors . It should have been 9 crews but Kevs Fiesta developed a problem en route to the start ... included in the 8 was the welcome addition of a crew from Whickham  motor club .

Mtc 1 – TC 2 would take crews on a loop through Castleton , Commondale , towards Kildale , bog seat farm ! , dibble bridge , Westerdale via vicars crest ,(pun) up to Ralphs cross then back down Castleton rigg to Bob – Paul at TC2 .. TC2 – TC3 took the crews past crag house farm (secret check) , up past the west side of Ainthorpe , Danby , Houlsyke , Lealholm , wild slack , down great fryup dale , climb up through street and down Glaisdale moor towards Al Mac and Ian at TC3 .  TC3 – TC4 . The less said about this section the better ! more of this later !! . busco beck , Glaisdale , up limber hill , Egton , loop via

Grosmont back to Egton , Egton flats , Stonegate then onto Rod waiting at TC4 . TC4 – MTC2 out towards Lealholm and onto everyone’s favourites  Oakley walls and Danby beacon (shortest route at triangle) , up to Moorsholm , through the watersplash and then a quick blatt over moorsholm moor towards Kev , Kenty and myself at MTC2 . with time cards sorted and signed , all 8 crews were sent to the Esk to hand in cards for Ian – Nick to decpher ..

   Back to TC3 – TC4 , the week prior to the event , we set off to get timings , mileage etc with no problem . fast forward a week , the day arrives. while out putting up code boards , a section of the route to be included was now closed !! (thanks north yorks council) . oh s**ttttt . so an urgent re-route and a frantic change of route instructions were drawn up, unbeknown to me , a few pages of the expert clues were un – amended and somehow got mixed up with the amended clues , which unfortunately meant 3 crews were handed the wrong info !. In light of this, the decision was taken to cancel the small re routed    section , and to omit 1 code board (egton triangle) . Some crews benefitted from this and others did not , it was the only thing I could do in fairness. I do apologise to all for the mix up , sorry guys an girls ! , i just hope it did not   detract to much from your nights entertainment. A big thanks to the crews for supporting the event , to Ryan for the use of the start venue , all the marshal’s , Ian – Nick for sorting out results , Phil – Les for closing car duties and last but not least , Kenty for being secretary . well done to Kurt – Ian on the win and to Dave – Mike on second overall , 1st novice crew .
