Wait whut? Is it not going ahead? I've seen no news of this development. |
This was on a facebook group i'm in, not sure who the source is or where she got teh info from.
Quote: | his year’s much-lauded inaugural Welsh Road Races at Eppynt will not go ahead due to a change in the traffic laws, say organisers.
On the 9th of January this year, there was a hearing with regard to the repeal of the Road Traffic Act. The repeal was to allow the use of closed Public Roads for Motorsport events. This repeal came into effect yesterday, on the 2nd February.
The Welsh Road Race had gained permissions previously, but the current change in legislation, has put the the timescale of the event into jeopardy, as there will not be enough time to obtain the correct permissions now to permit the event.
“We are working closely with the ACU, Crown Properties and Powys County Council to organise the Welsh Road Race, and under the new changes in legislation, the new deadlines that have been imposed, will make it very difficult to carry out a safe and successful event’, said Derek Smith, Managing Director of the Welsh Road Race.
“The Board of Directors are absolutely devastated, for all the supporters and all concerned with the event. We have began steps to contact all our supporters and sponsors who are involved in the event.” |

Very pricky of them if they knew the changes in law were incoming.
What I found annoying was that they say those that paid for tickets this year can hold onto them for 2019 as 2019 the prices will be going up.
I hope those that choose to get a refund receive it promptly.
I also hope they get it sorted because roadracing...well it has to be experienced. ____________________ Diabolical homemade music Bandcamp and Soundcloud

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 5 years, 330 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
