Lunch will be served at 12:00, with a briefing scheduled for 12:30. The first set of 3-4 back to back sprint races will start at 13:00. There will be a half-hour break for tea and cakes at around 15:00, followed by another set of back to back sprint races. A vegetarian feast will be served for dinner at the clubhouse on Saturday evening; this should be reserved at time of registration (cost £10 per person).
