Does any one know which are decent 25/50 courses in the Lichfield area.
I'm going to be in the area in a few weeks and thought I would see if I can get an event in.
By decent I mean flat, I'm not fit enought to get over hills yet and that would spoil the enjoyment

don't think anyone's been killed during a race, some chap was killed on that road in December, riding home from work at night in poor visability. |

Correct...by a LGV driver who is still locked away, as 'killing' the off duty police officer in an open TT was not the only offence he and his family/employers were committing that day,so not a relevent comment really,............... unless we stop using ALL roads

3 races on there this year, but are all at the height of summer due to the early start required on the A38. |
