Chain Gang – Thursday 5th May

Two notes for this weeks chain gang

From this week and for all of May 1845 start

Given the situation with the roadworks around Holmsley we’ll use the B3055 course between Roundhill campsite and Hatchet Pond. Start point will be the junction of the B3055 and the road to the campsite. Plan for 3 repeats of the route and around 45 minutes as last week.
