In full: Super fast course. Very well organised race and great attention to detail. Minor issue for future reference - better if the start line gantry was full road width to avoid the funnel effect at start.

In short: Fast traffic free course.
In full: Very lucky to be traffic free roads or this race would likely have had to be cancelled due to thick fog. This is a definite PB course with decent facilities at the start and finish. Sincerely hope the West Lindsey Series is continued next year too. Well done organisers.

In short: Nice start to the year
In full: Despite the forecast wind it did not seem too bad in the race apart from one mile where I lost some time. However I still started 2012 with a PB so cannot complain. There was some traffic on the course but nothing that was intrusive to the race. There is one narrow footpath section coming back to the seafront where it was quite difficult to overtake. Any pedestrians/dog walkers might have caused issues there. I think the organisers may have been surprised by the number of entries which was a record for the event. There was an announcement asking for volunteer marshals at the last minute as some had not turned up. I suppose there is always the chance of that happening after New Year's Eve. Overall I think the organisers and marshals did a great job. Well done to them and I will definitely be back next year.
