Parking will be £10 per vehicle forr the event - Info closer to the race on how to pay/book this. 

Optional £50 payment for team kit, cusatom Hoodie and T-Shirt. The event itself is free. 

We are providing the event and covering all costs from our successful SBYU and TBYU event profits but we see the team kit as an optional item that individuals can choose to pay for or not, obviously it would be nice to have everyone in the same T-Shirt and have a cool Hoody to wear around the event or afterwards. We will make no profit from these items anxd it's just covering the cost of a Hoody and Shirt to be made.
