Didn't bother to look after inliners were dropped last year but they allowing us back this year.
Same day as the Berlin half marathon. Bit late to enter now as it's only 4 weeks away.
If anyone wants to go I'll stick it in the events calendar if not then I'll keep it in mind for next year.
Assuming the course is the same then it is quite a nice race but there is a dodgy cobbled bit with a turn if it's wet. Etienne and I crashed out of this one 2 years ago. It was Mike's first one and he finished alive.
Cobbled finish too which can catch you out if you're not aware of it.
Missed the cheaper registration. It's now €56 for auslanders.
I'd like to go but it's not good timing now.

Online entry available. Haven't checked but in the past we have been able to enter with a credit card. |

| From what I've read I cannot recommend that one. The course is dodgy and the price is quite high. They've not invited top teams because they hope that nobody will crash on the cobbled finishing strait then. Hmm. |

| It's not ideal for a sprint finish. Done the race 1½ times. It's mostly quite nice if it's dry. |
