South West Enduro Series presents the Gallos Downhill at Old Hill Bike Park on the 24th May 2020.

Gallos; ’can do’ or ‘able’ in Cornish and the name of a famous monarch’s sculpture attributed to power.

​These mini downhill style events are all about fun and excitement.

Riders make their own way to the top of the hill to get to the front of the starting line. Every racer gets to complete two race runs, with the best time counted in the overall, this way you get the chance to put any mistake behind you and get the best result you can.

Park Entry Discount: Show your Race Entry Ticket to a member of staff at Old Hill Bike Park on Saturday the 24th May, to get access to the park for just £5 (usually £12.50 for Adults and £8.50 for Children).

Saturday is not part of the event so there are no marshals or medics onsite.

The venue is open as normal and you must follow the usual park rules and regulations. You are responsible for your own saftey and wellbeing while riding the day before the event.

​The course will be marked out on Saturday. Please respect that certain sections may have to be temporarily closed for any works being carried out for the event. The trail team will aim to reopen any such closures as soon as possible.

Marshals on course will have flags to indicate any situation that has occurred onstage to racers. When a yellow flag situation is in effect, all riders must slow down to take caution. Red flags indicate that riders must stop. In any instance when a flagged situation has occurred, the starting marshal will close the track and any riders on track during the closure are given reruns.

​Registration will be open Saturday evening, where you can sign on and collect your race board.
