In short: great event- but never again!
In full: Another beautiful evening race, great route, well organised (although I wasn't too sure about the start on a well-used road) and I did enjoy the beer and roll at the end!

As ever thanks to all those who volunteered to put the race on (and made the rolls).

I must remember though, I hate hills. And there are two biggies (for me at least) which I found extremely painful.

Also, price (at £14 unattached) is a bit steep- I have not done the race before but I think from previous comments it used to be a bit better value.

In short: Great scenic course, not good for PB, more water stations needed
In full: This was the first time I have done Bugatti. The arrangements were a little strange, park your car, then walk 1 mile to Race HQ for toilets, then walk back from where you came to the start line! Already done 3km before starting!
Good organisation overall, plenty of marshalls and very friendly race. Liked the beer and sandwich at the finish line.
Quite a tough course but very scenic, hilly in places, all on road.
One significant improvement would have been more water stations. 1st and only water station was 6km in, on one of hottest nights of the year I was really flagging at one point due to the heat.
Overall liked it and would definitely do it again.
