Crewe is a major rail junction and as such is easily reached by train and is also just off the M6 and is thus very central.
We have an excellent planner in Olly Williams.
All the usual urban courses will be included with the standard course combinations.

Re: UK Urban League 2015
BKO have scheduled Great Hollands, Bracknell on 3 May 2015. The area was a serious contender as the location for the 2015 British Sprint Championships but due to car parking issues the region ultimately has decided to use Aldershot instead. Very technical urban estate and easy to forget where you have actually got to on the map.

Re: UK Urban League 2015
With so much interest in Urban events we really could do with an 'urban' filter on the BOF fixtures list. Any ideas on how?

Re: UK Urban League 2015
On the BOF website there is a filter for events registered as Nopesport Urban League on the competitions tab. I guess it will cost to have this changed to UK Urban League or plain urban event. Also it relies on fixtures being registered correctly and that is subjective, some will feel an urban event is tarmac or gravel and not grass but most events I run at have some parkland to break up the pattern.

Re: UK Urban League 2015
There may be an event in Redditch, possibly 5 or 6 September 2015.
There is definitely one on Sat 25 October 2014. Not national Urban League this year (is WM), but 8 courses to choose from - usual ones with W65+ not sharing with MW16-, plus Young Junior and Yellow. More details on http://www.harlequins.org.uk/fixtures.html shortly.

Re: UK Urban League 2015
The 7th Brighton City Race (http://www.brightoncityrace.org.uk/) will take place sometime in Dec 2015. None of the previous 6 events have made it in so potentially a new venue for the league.

Re: UK Urban League 2015
Saturday March 21st EBOR have a chasing sprint at RAF Linton-on-Ouse. this is a really excellent sprint area (lots of buildings and narrow paths at odd angles) with technical courses for all age groups (ie no traffic problems!). It's also the YHOA sprint champs. And there's a B event very close the day after.

Re: UK Urban League 2015
The UK Urban League programme for 2015 is gradually coming together but this is a very early plea for 2016.... by Autumn 2015 please could anyone thinking of or knowing about an urban event that will be taking place in 2016 please try to get the basic details into the BOF fixtures list. The earlier this is done the more events there will be that can be considered by Roger and Brian. The debate on Nopesport forum about which 2015 events to include has increased the excitement for a great 2015 league.

Re: UK Urban League 2015
...and the confirmed races for 2015 are:
Sun 25/01/2015 DEE Crewe
Sat 14/02/2015 CLYDE Erskine
Sun 03/05/2015 NGOC Gloucester (part of Gloucestershire weekend)
Mon 04/05/2015 LVO Lisburn (part of Irish festival weekend)

Sun 07/06/2015 AIRE Colton/Leeds (Leeds weekend with chasing sprint on 6 June)
Sun 28/06/2015 SMOC Milton Keynes
Sun 05/07/2015 EPOC Elland
Sun 12/07/2015 NATO Newcastle (with sprint relay 11 July)
Tue 04/08/2015 S6DAY Forres - numbers may be capped, enter early to get your preferred course
Sun 06/09/2015 LEI Loughborough
Sun 11/10/2015 DEE Chester
Sat 24/10/2015 CUOC Cambridge
Sat 31/10/2015 BADO Basingstoke (November Classic 1 Nov)
Sun 01/11/2015 STAG Cumbernauld (part of Glasgow weekend)
Sat 19/12/2015 SO Brighton - and series prize-giving
I'll put them up on the UKUL site by the weekend.
Just seven from 18 races to score - and with plenty of notice I'm hoping that we'll have lots of people with a full set of scores next year. I'm expecting people to do the local companion races on the weekends of 2-3-4 May, 6-7 June and 31 Oct - 1 Nov rather than travelling from Gloucester to Lisburn, Poole to Leeds and Basingstoke to Cumbernauld... but maybe someone will prove me wrong!
