The revised times and age classes for the junior races and the Marco Germanetto trial race are in the race update section. The youngest junior races start at midday.
Ignore the information about start times in the link in the FRA announcement about the Marco Germanetto race.
The senior race time is also altered slightly.
Dave Bateson
Organiser
Anyone from the Forum attending???
I shall be there, so that's the two of us!
There will be a mini village fair on the day, with cake stalls etc, so bring some loose change.
Dave - organiser
I'll be there then :).Quote:

Good to see a few people from the forum today.
Another excellent race, thanks Dave.
Not the best of runs by myself a minute slower than last year :(
Yes, good to see so many from the forum. Brummy John flew in from Germany especially. Everyone was moaning about their injuries beforehand of course but he came up with the Wurst excuse!
Good to see the return of Big Bad Baz. I improved by 9 minutes on my last effort here but he still beat me!
I enjoyed it.Superb day for it and i was re-aquainted with my Art teacher from secondary school.Quote:

Swoop thought up that Wurtz joke in a millisecond on the start line, pure genius! He beat me by 1 place on the final run in but i'll be back ...
Are there any results up yet for the Belmont race? :confused: It was one of my better runs so i'm anxious to see :)
I photographed the results so if you let me know your name and rough time I can confirm the exact time and position.
Cheers mate!:) See Pm..
Result sent, you beat me, just ...
Anyone know when/if/where the results will appear?
I have spoken to the race organiser and the results should appear in the next few days. A little more patience!!!
Any results yet ?Quote:

Results were sent to Brett by email several days ago. Presume there must be some sort of problem. Email me at [email protected] and I`ll send them direct.
Dave
A copy of the full Belmont results is posted on the Rochdale site, thanks to Dave for providing these (requires Excel).
I receive a huge quantity of mails. It might well have gone into the junk mails!
I do try and get results up fairly quickly.
If this doesn't happen please get in touch.

Dave someones just pointed out to me the note on the results.
We may have to raise the entry fee as United Utilities are wanting to charge us around £100 for a permit to race on Winter Hill. I shall be taking FRA advice on the matter. :mad:
This is a joke, as though UU don't make enough money!!
As a race organiser myself on Winter hill, keep us posted.
You could always ask United Utilities to sponsor the race and contribute to the charity.Quote:
