ROUND 2 @ TYFOS ESTATE, LLANDRILLO 27.4.08 WORDS': G.TURNER PICTURES: CETRA EVENT PHOTOGRAPHY FAST EDDY'S RELENTLESS! "Once again the rain tried to dampen the spirits at the latest WOR events production, the GAS GAS XC championship, round 2 at the superb TYFOS Estate in North Wales. Once again the wet stuff failed!! Two quality XC events ran on time and to the usual Standards that this class leading club always run to. The circuit to be fair, although very slippy after torrential overnight rain, remained totally ride able and offered the riders a very varied circuit indeed with technical woodland, awesome open mountainside and some fast forest roads. It was a shame that the rain came down and made things trickier than they need have been because on the day before (sat) the course was bone dry with powdered berms and loamy, peaty soil. All said and done though all of the riders crossed the finished line with a smile and a handshake for the clerk of the course. Testament to yet another great WOR event. Full Report
