    It gives the race organisers a day to recover and sort the split results for the race before going back to the grind on Monday

    And the competitors a chance to race again Sunday or get in a long run instead.
    Hoping for a far more successful 2009

    Can you not make Tarren Hendre this weekend then?

    Nice race bit of everything with quite a long run out on forestry trails. Hope it'll be on if there's snow around.

    Cheers, not too much on this side until March really, when there's a few shorter races then Ras Yr Aran, but Moelwyns in April is a great race if you can get time off work. Cracking AM, bit of everything.

    Good luck in the cyclocross.
