Ravenstones Brow on Fri 6th Jun 1986

Although Saddleworth is not much further than Hayfield from Sheffield, this race seems to be peculiarly unpopular with Dark Peak, so much so that I had secret dreams of being first DPer home. The sight of Andy Forsyth soon brought me down to earth and I had to be content with first lady, (which is pretty good by my standards). The course is probably an ideal progression from the Hope Valley races with fast footpaths and tracks sandwiching a good rocky climb and a short stretch of typical South Pennine tussocky moorland. Mike Meysner and Dick Howarth tackled the full 3—day event which throws in two very hilly road races on Friday evening and Sunday. Congratulations to them both for having the fitness to tackle all three. Dick came close to his time of two years ago at Harrop Dale and then bettered his time in the other two races. I wish I could get anywhere near the times I was doing two years ago — I must pump him for his secret. (More training?)
