Cancelled – Hafren British Enduro Championship

Bad weather puts a stop to this year's Hafren enduro Bad weather puts a stop to this year's Hafren enduro

It is with great regret that the Hafren BEC in Wales scheduled for next weekend, 14/15th July has been cancelled…

The cancellation is due to the persistent bad weather and weeks of rain. With no sign of a substantial improvement between now and next weekend the Hafren Dirt Bike Club have been forced to cancel the event.

The course is totally saturated, with many parts being un-rideable, and with the growing environmental pressure – the club work under with the forestry commission – they are afraid that the damage caused may jeopardise the long-term future of motorcycle events in the area. Another issue is that the harvest has not been taken off the fields for the special tests and service.

This is not a decision that the Hafren Dirt Bike Club have taken without a great deal of consideration having looked at many different options and potential solutions, none of which were workable.

Hafren Dirt Bike Club: “We would like to apologise to all who were planning on attending for any inconvenience caused, we are as disappointed as anybody. All riders entry fees will be refunded less £5 to cover some of the admin fees and the several thousand pounds loss the club will have to stand as a result of such a last minute cancellation. We would like to thank Rob Sheldon at Rock Oil North and others who committed their support to the event.”

If you have any queries please contact the club on info@hafrendbc.co.uk
