The race is nearly sold out 1 day after sign-on opened. Dont hang about
Dont forget, you can do the B race on a mtb if you have no cx bike....... Seems to be an advantage in some cases ;)

Does not look to be much time for a practise lap with the new race schedule, guess the first lap will have to be it :-\

What a setup today, amazing to see cx so well attended, Ladies race is a fantastic addition. My race started well until I was sabotaged by a strip of tape that managed to wrapped itself around my cassette and front wheel midway around lap 1! I stopped straight away and untangled it but made the mistake of pushing hard to try get back to where I was which was a bad idea as I was ready to drop out on lap 2. Eventually decided to hang on to the end but found every bit of it torture, glad I finished in the end and a lesson learned.
