The organisers specifically request that recces don't take place, and people doing so almost caused the cancellation of the race a couple of years ago.
So I'm curious, why do people not only still recce the route, but post details on these forums, and even create blogs about it?
The question is aimed at myself as much as anyone else - I posted details of our recces on the club website when we did the event.
Is there perhaps an element of "the rules are for other people" about it?
