Terrible luck has struck, again, at the Bartley Beast. Given the lack of wind, variable direction, cold temperatures and fog the club have taken the difficult decision to cancel tomorrow's event (11 Jan 2025).

We will put on club racing if feasible... but it's looking unlikely.

The club has every intention of committing to the remaining dates of 15th Feb and 8th March 2025. The show will go on!
