Early Birds and Late Night Rats

Rob Howard / 06.11.2005

Plan are already afoot for next year’s Rat Races and there are currently good discounts for Early Bird entries, and coming up on Sat. November 12th it’s Rat Race Ceilidh night and a celebration of this year\'s series.

Next year\'s races will be in the same cities and the dates are set for:

Bristol - 17/18 June 06
Edinburgh - 15/16 July 06
Manchester - 5/6 August 06

The Manchester race will now be a 2-day format, with a Saturday night prologue similar to Bristol and Edinburgh, and in all 3 races there will be a Rookie class for those who only want to give the prologue a go, and an Adventure class for those who want to go the whole way. So there is no separate Elite class for 2006, but “there will be specific sections that the leading teams may take advantage of to secure their leads...!”

Entries are already open with all the details and online entry on the website and if you get entries in before November 25th you can qualify for Early Bird discounts of £5 off per Rookie racer (£15 per team) and a hefty £20 off per person in the Adventure team category - that\'s £60 per team!
