New Date

sent by Organic Adventure on 23/03/2018 at 08:24
Morning all,

Still no definite news on a new date, we have had to turn down the first offer as it was the same day as our Chocathlon, waiting on a new one...

In the mean time;

We can transfer your OWU entry to one of the following;

White Rose Ultra (30) 4th November (www.WhiteRoseUltra.co.uk)
Ultra Kirklees Way 6/7th July (www.teamoa.co.uk)
King of the Hill 6 April 1st (www.teamoa.co.uk)
The Drop Christmas Special 28th December (see below)

When we have a new date for the OWU we will open it up to take new entries for all those that missed out for reasons other that the weather - you could defer to another event and still enter to do the new OWU on the new date!

To take advantage of any of this please email events@teamOA.co.uk we wont be able to respond properly to comments and messages on facebook twitter etc and dont want to loose track of who's wanting to do what!

We will keep you informed and let you know as soon as we have the new date fixed.

Canceled

Update 05:45 -

On instruction form local Mountain Rescue following call from police we are canceling todays event. 


We can move you over to the White Rose Ultra latter in the year or an alternative date for todays OWU. 



We will update asap. 

Snow - Storms and cold

sent by Organic Adventure on 18/03/2018 at 05:17

We have just returned from a recce to look at the surrounding roads, although not snowing the whole area is struck with severe drifting, the side road (Watersroad,) is inpassable to any vehicles. There is no further snow forecast at present, just increasing wind speeds and drop in temperature.

This is only a race it is not an essential journey!. Your own safety is what matters today. If you are not comfortable travelling from where you live or where you are staying or are worried about running, then be sensible.


For those already here and able to make the journey, start will be postponed until 09:30 when a final decision will be made.


If its not for you, we can move you over to the White Rose Ultra latter in the year or an alternative date for todays OWU. If you are coming, we will see you in a few hours.
