All drivers attending a meeting for the first time will be asked to drive a circuit of the course accompanied by an official member of the club.
If you are in any doubt as to the terrain you are about to drive, walk it first. Official members of the club are always available to provide advice. Do not drive unless you feel confident to do so.
We would like you to have a safe driving day so any questions about the course please speak to the Clerk of the Course.
Horses.
Please note that some of the sites we use have 'Bridleways' crossing them. If, when you are driving across the site, you come across someone riding or walking a horse you must stop and turn off your engine until the horse and rider have passed by. This is important as the club relies heavily on the goodwill of all land owners.
