Supporters Checkpoint Guide
Firstly I want you all to know we are looking forward to bringing you to our area of the UK in 2022. The start may be in Barnsley but quickly heads west to an area not visited by the annual 'hundred' very often.
The Peak District in the second busiest National Park in the world. A certain amount of planning may be required to negotiate around the Holme and Hope valleys over a bank holiday weekend!
This guide is repeating what was said a couple of years back as it is very important.
We all know that in "recent" years, increasing numbers of friends and family members have taken to following and supporting their people on the Hundred, so we expect there will be no shortage of followers in 2022.
However it does present any organising committee with a serious problem, as not all checkpoints are able to manage the numbers of vehicles that arrive and remain parked waiting to cheer and applaud their participants. Where there are no practical difficulties we are all for welcoming supporters, adding as they do to the overall spirit of the event, but at other times the sudden and unexpected arrival of supporters can have a very negative impact and consequently become a real threat to the good name of the LDWA.
Given the potential seriousness of any incident, those individuals behaving irresponsibly or without due care and attention to their surroundings will be brought to the attention of the checkpoint manager who if involved will expect immediate cooperation and compliance with any reasonable request. If in the very unlikely case of anything not being resolved at once the incident will be reported to the 100 Review Group with the possibility of subsequent sanctions for any LDWA member involved.
Below is a summary of just how things are at checkpoints. Please note that anybody who is not an entrant in the event will not be allowed access into a checkpoint, including HQ, unless permission has been given by one of the volunteer supporters at that location.
HERE you can find a list of public houses on route that would welcome your visitation.
