In short: My favourite race in the calandar. Simply brilliant.
In full: Traffic free, fast and flat with beautiful scenery and a tremendous atmosphere. It doesn't get any better. Get your entry in early, it is always oversubscribed months in advance.

In short: A well organised and popular race. By Welsh standards it is flat, and by anyone's standards it is almost flat. Made difficult by the Sahara like heat - not what you expect when surrounded by Welsh hills.

In short: amazing scenery and very flat course made this a perfect race for anyone (myself included) trying to qualify for F.L.M.

In short: The scenery makes this race worthwhile by itself but Oswestry Olympians put on a good race too.
