We should all boycott this, because it has caused the Herne Hill Good Friday meeting to be cancelled

[Alan B]

hmmmmm, perhaps you're right............

...............or maybe we should just get on and support it - if we don't, the progress made with Revolution etc could go to waste, and we won't get world cup event in this country for several more years

dinner in the middle of the track is pretty cool - did it at the world champs a few years back.
