In short: Great local race
In full: I was really impressed with the marshals, every single one on the route had some words of encouragement. Nice scenic route on country lanes, some very gentle inclines but no big challenges. Nicely organised event. Thanks to all involved.

In short: Great Race
In full: Parking is right next to HQ, friendly marshalls, tea and cake sold after the race. 2 challenging hills on the course, but going down the other side makes it worthwhile. Medal and plenty of water for finishers. Have done this before and will do it again. Good Race!
