In short: A super race, quick scenic (for Slough) course and well organised with lots of friendly marshalls
In full: A lovely race in a nice setting - wouldn't guess it was only a couple of miles from Slough. The 2 lap course was fast, on country lanes with very little traffic, but lots of friendly and encouraging marshalls.
The only (very slightly) negative comments are to do with the prizes: Prizes for the winnners, other than trophies would have been nice - but then it was a cheap race to enter, so can't have it both ways I guess. Also, I think that the organisers already know that the spot prize draw didn't work very well - although it did mean that I got something.
Overall though, a great race - and the icing on the cake? I didn't even have to queue for the loo.

In full: Well organized event. Nice warm up route to the start line.Marshells gave good clear instructions and very good support. Fast course managed to get a P.b. Although the roads were not closed to cars the traffic was not a problem.
