In short: Good race but not a fan of 2 laps
In full: Overall a nice race with a testing hill. Problems with the slippy area as you enter Darley Park (sap) particularly as it was straight after the hill and then the barriers going down the hill slowed you down.
Not a great fan of two lap courses as you tend to create -ve thoughts, e.g. knowing you have got to do that hill again, etc.,.

In short: Great Friday night.
In full: Well organised, friendly and worthwhile event.
It was a bit too hot for me but I enjoyed it all the same. The hill was a bit of a crippler on the second lap though.
Great fun, I'll be back!
