Reeth 3 Day – Cancellation – further information
Following on from the sad decision to cancel this year’s Reeth 3 Day trial the committee have decided that riders on the entry list as of Wednesday morning – 4th July 2018 – will all have a guaranteed entry in the 2019 Reeth 3 Day with a provisional date of 19th, 20th & 21st July 2019 and will not have to go through next year’s ballot. We will hold the £90 entry fee from this year to pay for your ride. If you do not wish to take up this offer, we are of course happy to fully refund your £90 and take you off the list. Those on the current waiting list will have first chance of these released places, in waiting list order. If there are still places available after this we will open entries again next year to fill the final spaces.
The list showing the riders is available to download here: Reeth 3 Day 2018 – Entries as at 4th July 2018 – Cancellation List
Many of you will have made travel and accommodation arrangements for this year’s Reeth 3 Day and if you need an official cancellation letter to help with refunds/insurance claims etc we are happy to do this.
We will be emailing riders individually over the next few days and ask that you please look out for the email (check your spam folder) and then reply with your decision. If you don’t receive an email please let us know by emailing reeth3day@richmondmotorclub.co.uk
Everyone here at Richmond Motor Club are really disappointed that we had to cancel, but hope that you fully understand our position.
REETH 3 DAY TRIAL CANCELLED DUE TO DRY WEATHER MOORLAND FIRE RISK
It is with regret that Richmond Motor Club and The Reeth 3 Day Clerk of Course have taken the decision to cancel this year’s trial, due to the real risk of fire on the moorlands following weeks of dry weather, which is forecast to continue leading up to the trial.
We have seen the devastating effect of the fires on Saddleworth Moor and moorlands in other areas. Richmond Motor Club have not taken this decision lightly, as much time and work has already been undertaken by our dedicated team of Clerks of Course, Secretaries and helpers, however as a responsible club, we feel that we cannot put our local moorlands and farmland at risk, nor put the custodians of the moors; our gamekeepers, landowners and farmers in such a position where running the trial could put their livelihood, birds and animals at risk.
We will be in touch with riders in due course and more information on the administration side will be posted on the website as it becomes available.
Reeth 3 Day –
Just a quick post to say that we will be doing the draw for numbers in the next couple of days so anyone needing to withdraw please let us know asap as it makes it much easier for us to fit in those on the waiting list before rather than after the draw. A full rider refund of £90 will be given before the draw takes place.

The 2018 Mintex has been another great success with a record 54 riders setting off and 45 making it back within the time limit.
Well done to all those taking part this year we really hope you enjoyed your day.
To organise this Youth Time and Observation Trial (our own mini-Scott), Richmond Motor Club had 84 signed on officials for the day and we absolutely couldn’t do it without all of this help. The ratio of officials to riders is pretty high and we thank each and every one of them. We would also like to thank the landowners, farmers and gamekeepers for allowing us to use the land, your continued support is very much appreciated.
