THE TRAIN
Please check that there is a service for trains to Burgess Hill on the Sunday before attempting to travel by train with your bike. Although many entrants have in the past come by train from places like London to ride in our events there are the usual train track maintenance proceedures carried out on Sundays. This can lead to passengers having to use the a bus for some or all of their journey. This might prove to be a non starter if your lugging your bike around wtth you.
