Jonathan, thanks for organising a brilliant event. This year, I've don't recall seeing such a variety of wildlife; the only animal missing was deer, but that is all for the good.
I still don't understand why the event doesn't have more entries

. In many respects the rally is tougher than a main trial. There is the initial planning of a route, which is the equivalent of the 'travelling salesman algorithm' and the constant concentration required to ride/drive the approximately 180 miles of each stage, through mostly narrow lanes.
By comparison, a main trial supplies the route and, ignoring break-downs, can be quite relaxed.
