EWS, who's excited ?

I was talking to neil on Thursday. He said funding is a nightmare. Entry fees only cover a fraction of the costs.

Would be interesting to see where it all goes…£54k isn’t a small event budget!

There was an article in the local rag about the funding problems I think, and didn’t someone on here say vallelujah was to help cover the loss made on EWS? The EWS budget must be more than 54k though, I can’t see that being enough to run something like the EWS for that many days, the insurance and medical cover must be tens of thousands alone. I’ve never seen so many people on carbon santa cruz’s before so I’m sure they could up the entry fee a bit, if there were to be another one.

T-Mo won by over a minute not bad…

Although as a friend who raced and came outside the top 100 (mens) pointed out, she was the only woman faster than him.

If this works like other big European race series do (just thinking aloud here this is not actual knowledge) – the fee to the Enduro World Series to hold the event will be a significant cost.
