Will the supplied postcode take me to the track or to somewhere near? If not will there be signposts? Thanks

There are little caersws cup arrrows stuck sign posts all the way from Newtown.

There will be more signs once you get close to the forest.

Ok, thanks for that!

OK I take back what I said about it drying out, just realised that metcheck was showing me a forecast for Newtown the TINY village in scotland instead of Newtown the sizable town in Wales, cocksuckers.

Forecast is indeed MISERABLE:

http://www.metcheck.com/V40/UK/FREE/dayforecast.asp?zipcode=SY17&day=2
(NOT http://www.metcheck.com/V40/UK/FREE/dayforecast.asp?zipcode=newtown&day=2 Grin)

I suck in the wet as well haha Sad

Right, what do we reckon, given a choice of 2.35 highroller STs or michelin mud 3s, should I put the muds on before I even leave the house?

I will Certainly not be entering the next two rounds,  Firstly no-one can predict the weather(i understand this). BUT if you are going to allow People to camp on the fields  then atleast have a way of getting them on/off the field. WHY SHOULD WE pay good money to go to an event to then not even be helped out of the field, when Mr Roberts was questioned by my dad about Is there going to be any help Off the field, There was a smug Reply of. 'wait till the end, There should be enough man power' Also he didnt want to use a tractor, to churn the Field up. Well if thats the case, make it so people have to find a campsite...
Thank god there was some Nice 4x4 drivers,

Thankyou to them.


Also 3 toilets for 300 riders+family+friends+spectators.Huh?

Anyway the course was good, the racing was good.

haha the field was doomed as soon as people started arriving and by about 1pm saturday, people had to be pushed in and out. A tractor would have been amazing and i doubt it would have made it worse.

Was my first time riding that track and loved it, would like to ride it again when dry(er) than saturday. Loved the uplift aswell, so quick and simple, good stuff!

I thought it was pretty good myself. When i asked someone on the Saturday about camping he clearly said to me not to camp on the field incase it rains. I stayed in the field, got wet and ruined all my kit. My own fault. I think it is also fair to wait till the race is over to start moving people out of the field. I had to get mine and my friends vans out on our own.

Only complaint was not the lack of toilets, but the fact some dirty b*stard couldnt get his "waste" down the toilet.. just left it on the lid... Cheers you dirty TW*T!
