Fifield 15 - Startsheet

The startsheet can be downloaded [PDF 97K] from the club's website. Many thanks for all the entries (over 50), we've had to arrange some extra parking as the HQ in Fifield maxes out at about 20 cars.

If you are not familiar with the course, then (weather permitting) I plan on cruising round it on Friday afternoon to check there are no roadworks, etc. Meet at the Golf Centre at 3.30pm (there's a Hounslow 25 on the course that morning).

Main points to watch are the climb from Holyport to Hawthorn Hill (it has a false flat for quarter mile after the junction with the A3035), and the turn back onto Drift Road after leaving Cranbourne (it is easy to miss & quite tight). Also, where the map shows the transition from the A330 to the B3022 to Cranbourne, the road continues straight on (so the A330 is a right turn).

A quick tour yesterday found some small, but sharp edged, potholes had opened up on Drift Road about a mile from the finish, and the A330 section from Holyport to the roundabout with Drift Road remains in poor condition.
