The fact that races have been registered shouldn't be used to suggest everything is all right or otherwise. It seems more likely to me that the majority of race organisers are prepared to bear with the FRA while they try to sort a difficult problem out.

With regard to this thread at least it has brought a couple of God points to the forefront of my mind which I hadn't really considered before so I think the debate's a positive thing as long as folks don't start taking anything personally.

Spot on Jim - good to hear some balanced sense & RO contemplation in this increasingly "didactic" (sic) if not obsessive debate, which I've watched quietly (so far) from the side-lines....almost enough said...

Very pleased that our FRA Committee have put so much effort, thought and consultation into the re-framing of the FRA Rules in the aftermath of the more than sad Brian Belfield circumstances...yes, I was there too...

I've also registered next years Kinder Trial with the FRA and will continue to support the FRA in all of it's efforts to help our "sport" continue into the future.....we (most of us love it dearly and do/will miss it immensely, when we can't take part and/or it doesn't happen) should keep true faith with the FRA Comm' because they care immensely for (& cherish) our amazing activities/events in the Wild & Very Special places, that we are lucky enough to know, share & discover.
