Last Feb's was. This Feb's will have double the capacity so people won't have to turn up at my front door with £10 notes and get upset when I tell them to clear off.
Neil, it's not full. We've not even opened the entry yet.
Sorry – the "we're full!" proclaimation on the website needs taking off cos it pertains to the last one.
Harry_the_Spider i'm one of the people behind the brownbacks xc series. i'd really like to race the feb event but if you get stuck for marshals or anything then give me a shout and i'd be glad to help? email in profile
Juan, we have a new and fancy sponsor who will be unveiled shortly. It isn't SCC however. Not that I have anything against SSC, they supported us at the 2008 race and made a donation to charity.
February, eh? well since I can't afford to ski in february even in a good year, I might be able to make this one. Will be taking photos and drinking beer though rather than racing. I'll need a preview ride so I can recce the course and choose a suitable location, will there be preview rides? Can you publicise them on here? ta 😉
Andrew, if you need any help with either of the events mate let me know. Not sure if you're aware but events are what I do for a living. Used to organise big club nights for 3000+ people and now organise conferences, awards ceremonies, product launches – we're doing the TUC in Liverpool at the moment.
More than happy to help & get involved in my spare time.

peachos – did he look like this, but in focus?
yes that's him. the undeserved 3rd place. i was in fact 3rd for most of the race, but my front tyre slid out on the last lap down by the pond/lake. it wasn't a bad fall i just hit my head. got back up and started to pedal straight away but then went dizzy and had to stop for a couple of minutes whilst i regained my vision. saw this guy fly past and tried to chase him down but ran out of course.
cx bikes all the way. Nothing that you need any form of suspension for, as I remember, and everyone on a cross went past me, so that must be the secret to success…. 😉
