eastcoaster Posted October 31, 2020 Report Share Posted October 31, 2020 Liege and Burdinne... two good races in a row, even spread of prizes per section, good returns etc etc Only in this country do you change what’s working. Beggars beliefBurdinne is too short for the east at less than 500 MLS I'm with Davy 550 to central belt but with new euro rules maybe no be anywhere over channel .

JonesyBhoy Posted October 31, 2020 Report Share Posted October 31, 2020 Moffat So not many ? Average distance would be under 500 miles ? If distance is the issue with Liege / Burdinne... why not just race from further on the same line ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkj Posted October 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2020 457ml from burdinne to Gretna 500ml from Reims to Gretna Both gold cup races And that would give the south 2 x 500ml plus races including the longest race also Reims and Troyes or Ancenis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely no Davey? Surely better racing, good returns, good entries, spread results and an all round good feeling about the biggest race is the goal?

hotrod Posted November 1, 2020 Report Share Posted November 1, 2020 The thing is with Reims I fly 590 miles the same distance as the Dundee guys fly so it’s quite an even playing field . Not saying fir one minute it’s a great racepoint just pointing out fairness in distance racing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
