I bet before the nights over somebody will take your offer up paul.

just looking at the map of the course - i was over that way on sunday.

i missed the footpath that goes off right (the first ascent is shown slightly to the west (right going up hill) of this path) from shatton lane, saw a gate on the right which had a little plaque saying no right of way. Also there was a very scary labrador a the entrance to the drive of the farm on the left (lees hall farm?) - i threw it part of my nutrigrain bar to distract it - and edged past (perimter guard dogs are always scary, i'm a dog person and this was a lab for fecks sake - 90% of the time they stay in their little territory - but its still scary when its all hackles and teeth and you don't know if it'll run out)

it all gave an impression of defensive land owners round shatton way.

Blatant plug to say the Wolfs Pit is on again this year; Sunday 14th March at a slightly later time of 11am. Same route as last year. It was a quick time by John Henegans last year will his record survive? We hope to improve the registration process this year to reduce the pre-start queues. Its a £5 on the day entry. Bradda ladies catering corp (ably assisted by Jaak & Keith) are putting on hot grub as well.

Cheeky question but how come its over 18 and not over 16?

People are worried you'll beat them.

Hi there,

I am planning (as a novice) to do this race. Providing I dont bottle out the day before or even on the day!

[mountain bag]

Maybe. Depends how I feel & if i make it to Moel Wnion and back. Its a nice quick race with good hill and a little bit of rough.

I'll be there. My manager is marshalling at the bottom of the decent sending us back up the hillside, so looking forward to swearing at him and getting away with it.

You're right, you can't miss a chance like that. We'll all swear at him and say it's from you.

Its good addition to the calendar this- a variety of steep, technical and runable sections. Being sent back up the hill at 5 miles was a test esp. last year with wind against. Last bit of descent across the fields was as fast as your legs could carry you- a real leg tester this one.
