My RSS feed said that there were two new posts on the NPS site yesterday, but I can't see them?  Is it just me, I tried ctrl+F5 etc to make sure the page isn't being cached, but maybe it's some weird proxy thing?

Brilliant for the southern riders i will do; 900 mile round trip for ae and then for inners, and over 1000 miles for fort william, and thats taking in to account that i dont know where carton bank is.

Doesnt make it very appealing considering it will use half of my holiday traveling to the events! They could at least do half wales and half scotland FFS.

But then if i dont do it in f**ked for 2008. Bit annoying to say the least.

Slightly annoying but that's the way it goes I suppose.

Anyway I'm gonna be scabbing lifts off people from down this way all year to save on petrol costs...

I Think I'm goin to have to look into getting a place at a uni In the north of the country when i go next year...

The Nps is officially 3/5 of the SDA's

Theres plenty of Track Choice more central..

Although the courses are great and are good selections. Its Becoming very pricey. Roughly goin to be 3000miles just for the nps this year..

There are some very good reasons for going all that way to Scotland, main 1's being spectater numbers, council's are a lot more helpful, and finally as you rightly say the venues are excellent. Things will be different in 2009 though, we are currently in talks for 3 new venues in and around Wales, so the shoe will be on the other foot in 09 when the Scot's come down here Wink

Apart from 04 the champs have been in the south for as long as i can remember

Rehola, Moelfre, bringewood,the fort, bringewood, hopton,bringewood

And for the people annoyed at having to travel so much you might want to remember Si and Steve are from brum so they have to travel up there too
