Good news !
Apart from it now being dark at Sunday awake o'clock, there was a nice surprise to discover that the Major A23 road widening at Handcross that has been going on for over three years (it started in October 2011!!!) - is now completed northbound, and that at 6am they had opened it back up.
It is difficult to describe just how nice this made that bit of the journey for my usual Sunday race trip, although the 40mph speedlimit had worked really very well for the past 2 years, I'm betting the Monday commuters had a fantastic surprise this morning.
Full details here http://www.highways.gov.uk/roads/road-projects/a23-handcross-to-warninglid/ since it started in 2005 at the initial tender, it has been a long road in more ways than one...
It was a busy weekend for us, with 5 races on the Sunday, with the autumn race season reaching it's crescendo next weekend with 6 races for us (and having turned down three others on that day, well if the race directors will phone up during the busy season with two weeks to go...), it's the peak season - so get your entries in early....
Right, most of the weekends galleries are now online - we have Clarendon and the Warrior to work through now which is heads down in the office tomorrow for everyone... wish us luck !
