SwissVan Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 Amazing stuff, drove past there a few times at xmas and was saying that next time I must try get a game there. Used to be a junior member there in the 1970's Surprised that the golf guys considered / allow it, well done and good luck Cliff.
svm3000 Posted January 17, 2014 Author Posted January 17, 2014 At the moment while we are still setting it out and marking it you can ride it anytime , its aprox 6.8km now we are going to have Thursday night rides every week with a bar and eats facility afterwards , meet 6:30pm in the parking lot we do one lap at dusk and one lap in the dark
