The Original post states the SNFC will be taking charge of the race, it does not say anything about rules or regulations and is open to other organisations within the british isles. Im sure this will, all have been or is being taken into consideration by the organisers. Johno I think you should maybe concentrate on competing and doing well in this race should it go ahead. You may then be recognised as a fancier rather than a politician, because I've never heard of you before until I came on here.
