Didn't stop a group of about eight of us getting lost on Offa's Dyke during the first of the series last year! Serves me right for playing follow the leader. :o

Thanks to you "guiding me round" last year, all I could see was my own shadow :mad: .
800 lumens, eh? I'm happy with my puny 60 lumens.....honest :rolleyes: .
(It's a terrible thing lumens envy)

Ahah, slightly new course this year, but should be able to find your away around without too much problem. But it will be a rather damp course if its anything like it was on Tuesday night. You'll all have fun I promise!:D
Re: Dashes In The Dark '08
I don't know how we all managed to get lost on the course, because Fellrunner is right when he says CRR races are really well marked out and marshalled.
I've been looking forward to these races for weeks. Bring on the muddy fun! :D
Re: Dashes In The Dark '08
CRR members have four of these silly bright lights and may be rented out to the highest biders! It was very wet and muddy tues night but tim skipped round the puddles like a gurl to keep his new inov8's clean and dry
Re: Dashes In The Dark '08
What's the tracks like on these races?
I'm tempted, but its a bit of a drive and I have the 4 villages half on Sunday, also recovering from a sprained ankle so if its uneven I definately won't risk it.
Are the good trails or quite uneven?

Its not exactly a golfing green to be honest! The first half is on mountain bike fire road and the rest is slightly uneven to say the least. Its not rocky but there are tree roots and bottomless puddles. You'll be fine if you look where you're going! :D
Re: Dashes In The Dark '08
Remember that there are roadworks on the A525 between Wrexham A583 and Coedpoeth. I believe the road is shut and there are diversions. Be prepared for big delays.
