By Unfortunately same as the Spada Spring Cup, the popular Cock O’The North meeting will also not take place this June at Oliver’s Mount, having been recently confirmed by event organisers Auto 66 Racing.
A statement released yesterday by the obviously desperately disappointed organisers, is as follows:
“It is with utmost sadness that we have to inform road race fans, riders, teams and the media that the 2018 Oliver’s Mount Cock O’The North road races on June 23rd/24th 2018 have had to be cancelled.
Auto 66 Club and its team of volunteers have been working with Scarborough Borough Council for the last 6 months trying to bring the circuit up to the new strict, safety standards that will ensure not just the road races in 2018 continue, but also future events at Oliver’s Mount.
So far, the new required safety levels have not been achieved and so it is with a heavy heart that we have to cancel the 2018 Cock O’The North road races.
With regards to ticket refunds we will continue to try and resolve this complicated situation as soon as possible.
We continue to work closely with Scarborough Council to try and rectify the current situation and will update with any news in the coming weeks.”
