Popped over there today to walk the hound with kids, the 1 guy was still setting up the track! He reckons some hard and fast and some gloop. Probably 2+4 laps respectively for the 40-90min races. The long driveway bit from last year won't be in it, but the field is:shock: |

I think I'm going to aim to get there for 10:00ish as I'm only doing the 40min one and going to have to sign on there as not pre booked. I'm on a retro green Votec Tox with yellow Magura Racelines!!! |

Hahaaa no prob mate! Wish i had known it was you now as would have said hi properly!!! What a race! Only 40mins but felt like a lifetime in that slop. The up hill climbs on the grass were as bad as the slop heading into the double ditch crossing!! Think they need to rename the series......Mud, Slop and Gunk!!! I was pleased as managed to get the win in the senior race but a bit disappointed in how much my laps dropped off. Not sure whether i will be at the Danbury race but will see. |
