In short: An undulating course with suprising'twists and turns'!!
In full: Loved the track finish, not sure about the track start though. Was disappointed that some of it was off-road (across a golf course)and the 'rhythm-damaging' barriers at the underpass were not very welcome!! Apart from that a good challenging course with plenty of interesting turns. Would do it again!
