In short: Also 2009. Fab race, really well organised!
In full: Excellent event. Full marks for the park and ride, friendly marshalling, free biscuits, cheery baggage storage staff and ideal weather. Nice medal, too. Interesting course - lovely downhill around mile 11! I will be back.

In full: Great race - fantastic organisation - coaches were a lovely touch - and the results service beats just about every race I have done.

In short: second attempt and probably last
In full: Nothing really special about this race, not even a T shirt this year unless you want to pay extra for one. £8 is expensive for a malt loaf and that's all we got. Well marshalled though as is usually the case in Wrexham AC events. Shame the sponsors couldn't join in the spirit.
