In short: My 1st ever race so no real comparisons for some catagories, but thoroughly enjoyable in every way possible.
In full: You should definately go with friends and family and enjoy the whole day in the lovely surroundings.

In short: Great atmosphere, challenging slopes - great day out
In full: I wish more races would put the fun runs / kids runs on after the main event, rather than starting at the same time - it lets parents do the race AND encourage the kids to race by running the funruns with them.My 2 boys look forward to this all year, and despite the rain, its still a great day out. Thanks Reg & Karen
