There were very few women entered, but the number of women that were there were there is still a better turn out than some other countries have had for 2009 (such as the New Zealand champs, where the 4x was scheduled on the evening of DH practice day, and it rained so hard all weekend that no-one turned up to the 4x!). Despite the adverse weather, by all accounts the UK Champs it were a fun race to be in, and a good laugh to watch! Maybe the riders will be hoping for rain next year too…
