Bill was also won his races two days running, on Days 4 & 5.

2009, Tay

The Event centre for the event was Perth Race Course set in the grounds of Scone Palace. A good setting but it was slightly spoilt by the heavy rain during the previous weeks. This resulted in the tents and cars on the camping areas being separated..

There was varied entertainment each evening and a themed menu from the café. On the Wednesday evening the Perth pipe band played and was enjoyed by a large number of spectators who had gathered for the Sprint O prize giving.

Results were displayed each evening ; no mean task for 3000+ competitors. Unlike previous years the cumulative results were based on positions rather than a complicated calculation involving standard deviations and the like. Bill assures me that the results for 2007 would have been virtually the same had they used this system.

All in all I thoroughly enjoyed the event which seemed to be very well organised even down to the weather which, apart from one day, was extremely good
