Hi Yiannis

Not meant to be just being honest and raising the awarenss of water crossings and about being pressured in a race. The last two times Tankys was run there was a water rescue team at the stream crossing.
Re rope: what I was getting at is it's suitability if you did use one.
I don't want lots of rules and regs just some awareness. on a MM or Trial type race where there is no fixed route should there be a compulsary crossing point when rivers are in spate.
