So, on the whole, I had a great time but just wished it'd stayed dry.
I was one of the fallers - yellow 996 in novices, front went the instant i touched the brakes heading in to the last corner (Lodge?). Bike slid for a long way and ended up buried in the gravel. Looking very secondhand now!

I will post some photos as soon as I get them...

Cheers
