“Right, we’ve spent two whole days marking this course and nobody will get lost” bellowed the rather intimidating race director. “An arrow like this means left, an arrow like this means right, it’s not hard, any questions?”. OK but why was he looking at me? Predictably within the first mile…
Good conditions – cool and dry – at least to start tho’ it did start drizzling 1/2 way round. The ladies were aiming to keep their lead at the top of the Grand Prix table but Macclesfield had a strong team out. PB’s for Sally M and Sally P and…
This was the first product of Malcolm’s initiative to get us organising more local races. As we settled at the registration desk Malcolm proudly announced a grand total of 6 pre-entries. Ah, well it was a nice sunny evening and we still had plenty of forms and safety pins for…
We often run mid week races , often on trails . A good mid week summer race on road needs the right surroundings , facilities , a good course and a pub for after . A balmy evening with a "fun" atmosphere but a serious race : a fast course…
We sometimes assume that people turn up for events in the summer unlike the winter XC when sometimes a bit of a push is needed ( less so now with the success of both mens and ladies teams ). Birchwood 10k is not a Summer Series race but a Cheshire…

I like Moonraker. I like the variety; road, off-road, uphill, downhill, flat. Some say it’s not scenic but I spend much of the time looking at my feet (today trying to work out why they were moving so slowly). I also like the fact for the second year running there…
