the first mini one at haldon (same series) was very good, 3 decent dh stages and a 20k course transition times were quite generuos however
the locals were taking a load of shortcuts and and a fair few on dh bikes too(tighter transition times would help eliminate the DH bikes) basically pushing up between the 3 stages, you could tell as they all turned up clean to each stage, while the rest of us were covered in crap
anyway the organisers said theyd DQ anyone taking shortcuts this time
the first one was excellent so I imagine this will be great too
(i did the UKGE at eastridge last year and there were some good technical DH runs in the mix too)
