March 28, 200917 yr Big round of applause for the Ilkley club and there observers for todays time and observation trial. starting in a hail storm the moors were not friendly although despite recent heavy rain they were surprising firm ( ish). The course was also a little shorter than recent years, tree plamting taking out one of the old 'reguler' sections ( and with trees planted right on the only line never to be ridden again. also exiting kex gill riders were routed back west and then up the hill to avoid areas of eroded peat, descending the moor a new route ( much much drier ) was used and a terriffic section in / up the side of a gully . the ilkley stalwarts regrettably didnt quite fill the 60 places but they do lay on a terrfificly well organised event. many thanks..
