A football field? That should be big enough unless there is some heavy flooding, that quickly drains away, leaving all the lovely dead worms and smell

hey it happened two years ago

It says nothing about booking in caravans on the info sent by the club in the BRCA pack, however we ran a regional there last month and it was so wet we had to get a jeep to tow the caravans back up the slope onto the pitch as it was that wet.

So if you are going with a caravan, bring a tow rope and a 4x4.

Oh, and can you tow me out when i get stuck!

Ace!

rag up the M1 - get off onto the M62 at J42 i think. Go left - towards manchester.

I'd get off J27 and follow the A62 towards huddersfield miself, but there is a junction (26 or 25???) that is closer to the track... so someone else will have to chip in here ..

Cheers jimmy, trying to find the track on google earth, but its like looking for a needle in a hay stack lol.

I don't mine a longer route if it makes it easier to find, Jackie said i need to be there for 7.30am so i will be half a sleep. If anyone has a post code that would be great.

Just remembered i got to take the brushless out bugger

Yeah you are right jimmy. Easier to come off at the junction after (signed as bradford on m62 me thinks.)Follow the signs for dewsbury which is the second turn of the roundabout. Just keep going straight until you see an athletics stadium (Small) on the right. You want the next right which is a filter off the road. Number of the m62 junction escapes me sorry.

Losidan is correct and the junction is J26 M62 - head for Dewsbury and it's about 3 miles ish from the motorway.

if you get lost and need to ask directions, ask for Spenborough Baths as thats where the track is.
