hi ALL,
there cant be questions and reconsiderations about the date.
1. *BBC race date is sunday nov 15,*
2. first viewing for those who are interested will be tomorrow nov 8, at
9.30 am Vasu,Darren and I will be on the spot to show the course.
by the way, why always the questions about the dates. nov 15 th is published
on the cahmpionship web page and endorsed by everybody since some 5 months
or so! Vasu, is that right? the Ultra run probably came later. we have to
decide for waht to go, next time t here is another clash anyway, as i should
be at a wedding , what else!
all the best and a good sunday whatever you do,
Georg
