At least I survived the ditch, although on the second time through, I pretty much came to a standstill as I got to the other side. A push from behind got me started again, lol.

SPR Nov 2012 9:56pm, 10 Nov 2012 17,643 posts	Quote Pin SPR I only did it once, but it was a better course IMO, more undulating and had it's own ditch as well, which was where Andy Money lost his shoe, lol.
