What happens to make sure that one of the many regional races happens and runs smoothly? There are a lot of perceptions that exist about why some things happen or don’t happen, so thought I would jot down some things that take place. It’s like it for many races not just the regional ones.

First easy question to answer is no we are not paid to officiate, we do it for the love of the sport! Although when you are stood at the top of a slope and it is raining do sometimes wonder why I am there, but it is great when the sun is shining :)

Over the years since the dawn of the Internet there have been a few websites which have just taken of with unbelievable popularity. Get the right idea, get the right viral approach, a bit of luck and away you go and that’s what we have seen with Facebook.

Last weekend we had the Ipswich club national which turned out be a dry event even though the forecast was for ran. Was a very good day in the end and Graham has continued his reporting of each race with the attached report for the day. Thanks Graham :)
