Last year it was £140 per team of 4, you need to get the entry form in ASAP.The team numbers have
gone up from around 300 to 400ish this year, so it'll be more hectic than usual.
I was told the entry details/entry form were on a website somewhere.Our Club has entered 3 teams.See
here for more details:

will bring up loads of links for this event.

Lights needed front and back in the dark.Every team member has to complete at least 2 laps(unless 1
is seriously injured).Solos, teams of 4(mixed or all men/women), and teams of 5(mixed team of men
and women).Mountain bikes only.You get issued with a tag at the beginning.Lose it, and you could get
disqualified, and you definitiley lose time.Once you have started a lap, you cannot turn round,even
if you have a catastrophic failure after 100 yards - you have to carry your bike all the way
round.No outside help if you break down.Other racers can help you, but you cant call your team mates
to come and help you fix anything.If you take a shortcut on the course, the whole team is
disqualified. Other than that, its quite straightforwar, just bring your bike and race! Alan.
