The WOESRC are marking Saturday for Sunday from Brighton. I’m sure the 3 counties will do the same with this weeks Ramsgate.

The Sussex North Road have also postponed to Sunday, unfortunately I think the numbers will be significantly down as we are basketing again Thursday night for our 2nd combine race from Hexham.

No Andy, sorry if didn't put that very clearly !!
This week we are basketing Saturday 7th for a Sunday 8th race, next week basketing is Thursday 12th for a Saturday 14th Combine race from Hexham, 292miles for me. This means if the Hexham birds go Sunday they'll only have 4 days before they are back in the crate again.
I hope that's a bit clearer !!

Sounds like there are a lot of organisations making that decision, it does look a bit rough for Saturday.
I see the 3Cs do a big write up in the BHW Andy !!

I would split your team Trev. I think 2 virtually 300 mile races in 6 days would be pushing it. That’s if as it looks like you are at Hexham both weeks.
