In short: Hilly, twisty, muddy in places but great fun
In full: My third time on this course which has great character- twisty hills and narrow tracks in places with horse gates all add to the fun. I heard a nasty rumour that the course may change next year to take out some of 'pinch points' Don't do it. If you want a PB go to any of the myriad flat boring road races. Keep the character in this one, it's what helps make it a unique and fun race. Who cares about PB's?
