Hi Glenn.

Im sure you will get some good input from folks here (and elsewhere), alas Im going to a work leaving do on Thursday, will there be other opportunities ?. Im surprised I didnt get an email about Thursdays events as Im signed up. While the events are good, the information does appear to be 'hidden away' at times.

ECC don't advertise these meetings but do attend,it's mainly myself arranging local riders,businesses etc! there is an estimated 40-50 attending so gaining a good following..you can keep up to date with progress on my f/b page..Hadleigh 2012 group
Cheers

Hi mates

All the videos from Olympics Mountainbike course looks completely different.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkGrmGf7eqo

This one looks ,that everything happened in a valley.

And the track from the FB page seemed to be more like an off land country.

anyway great video :clap:

From the beginning this topic,i thought that the castle is on the same hill like the event.
after 3 month i descried that the Hadleigh Farm center is located between the Olympic course and the Hadleigh Castle.

thats because photo's are 2d in real life 3d there is a steep drop down to the Estuary (the sea - if you're from London?)

Hadleigh Castle is the furthest East then right next to that is Hadleigh Farm then just along from that is the Olympic site.

If i compare this photo with a map.It´s looks very diffrent.
Where about is the railway line.On the back it must be the industrial from Canvey Island??

This photo looks very simliar to the other location.

From up here, near the Leap of Faith, there's a great view over much of the course.
