yes of course exr1 - cbtrf are known for the high percentage of legal egals in the club- so fully legal as we are running this event as a navigational scatter with the blessing of Austin Vince acknowledging and using his unique format.

more details on navigational scatter here and on the acu and msa websites:

Navigational Scatter Events are a form of event that are considered automatically authorised under Regulation 5(b) of the legislation, by virtue of the fact that they have no set route and there is no competition on the Public Highway. It is important that they are run to the following conditions;
* Places to be visited must be detailed to the competitors in the form of points on (say a map reference) described in no fixed order (not the Standard Treasure Hunt format of one point leading to the next).
* Competitors should be given a random choice of points to visit, and not be required to visit more than 75% of them. The point should be safely located and competitors be free to visit them in any order.
* Competitors should be required to leave the car to reach the points (using maps for example). The car is only a form of transport to get close to the points.
* No form of timing should be employed on the Public Highway sections, although a finish time may be specified providing it gives reasonably adequate time to visit the required number of points.
These events are regularly run by local motor clubs, but may be of little interest to members of the general public running an event.
The event could be thought of as orienteering without the strain. Advice should be sought from CAO before undertaking such a venture if you are unsure.

regarding insurance national trf have organised insurance to cover events and training - which covers us for the afternoon part of the event - riders will need their own insurance for the road and lanes as with any green laning
I will repost this now and please could whoever removed it pm me if they continue to have concerns - i would have thought that is the appropriate etiquette - we have now lost several weeks of useful publicity

For anyone concerned - confirming that

1. The Directors are happy with the event.
2. Insurance cover has been discussed with me some time ago and I have arranged cover specifically with this event in mind.

Grateful if the complainant would feel able to identify themselves and explain why they felt it necessary to pick this event , over any of the other TRF events.

Meanwhile I will look into any moderating issues.

...and then perhaps we can all move on.


TRF Marketing will help promote the event with extra focus to catch up on lost ground.

That’s strange I didn’t post the first two comments.
I fully back this event and will be going myself.

Is anyone else in possession of you log in details... password etc.?

No I’ve never shared my login info. I would be very surprised if anyone knows me from that screen name.
