Easter at Holmfirth 2006

Easter Saturday and Jonathan Trevor and I went over to set the site up ready for Sunday. We were joined by Hawkeye and Hadyn and we had a lovely warm morning. This would be great if tomorrow was the same but Sunday came and it was wet, windy and cold. This did not deter the lads however that turned up.

Here's "Just Ten Coat Jane" with coats borrowed to keep warm, and a brew was in order before we started.

 
The first 3 sections were pegged out reasonably easy as we have new members who wanted to have a go. Then sections 4 - 8 got progressively harder.
 

The drizzle didn't last long which was a good thing because it would have been very slippy on some of the hills.

 

As far as I know no one had any damage except Trevor who insisted on trying the impossible (that's my view anyway).The course went down into a basin and he smacked his front end into a tree. He couldn't get out so he had to be winched out much to the amusement of all the lads.

 

We had a good day everyone drove well even the new lads.The winning three are pictured here below.
