Registration for Newton's Playground will close on the 20th of November 2009 or when remaining places have been filled whichever comes first, this is 1 week before the event. If you are intending to register for Newton's Playground you will have to do it by this date. There are about 25 rider places left, this has not been split into categories so first come first served.
