We’re halfway there already with the Carshare League this year (see full list of races below), with a couple of us already having bagged our five counters. Looking good too at present for junior Paxman to deliver our first five women’s completions in a year … the trophy is a thing of beauty, Rose, and we’re all keeping fingers crossed for you.

Next up in three weeks is the Cwm Pennant Horseshoe – a British Champs counter this year occasioning a welcome return to the Nantlle Ridge for the CSL – and then the Buttermere Horseshoe at the end of June; a Lakeland Classic counter for the first time and reputedly another instant (resurrected) classic. Note that both of these races are pre-entry only, with limited fields, so get your entries in forthwith.
