Really? i didnt think it was practical at bonaly as there is a long tiring climb, unless it only ran to halfway down the hill where the off camber bit is.....

I would be interested though, what track would it be on?

the track is around the 1 minute 30 mark from top to bottom depending on conditions. Although its a fair slog it will give people a better chance of putting together a decent run. If people would rather have a shorter section then thats fine with me and we can just do more runs. Me and James are going to decide the final track this week and we can shorten it if need be on sat.
Cheers
