BTRDA Drop the Wyedean - Petition to bring it back

[Ross Parker]

Please all that live in the south west and Wales sign the petition. For some reason BTRDA has take Wyedean of the list for 2016. Its an excellent event and it would be a sad loss.

I don't think it's a BTRDA decision, I think it's more to do with the new MSA rules on spectators and safety.
The spectators on the Wyedean seem to contain a high percentage of feral idiots and I tihnk the organisers have no way of really controlling them thanks to the proximity of the main roads through the forest particularly around Speech House.

A sad day though, I've watched on the Dean for many years and never yet had a chance to compete on it. Once it goes it probably won't come back.

well I have to say I agree with you. Every year I go there are more numpties that don't realise if you sit a foot from the track in your camping chair you may well get hit by a 60mph stone or if not the whole car.People are so stupid it amazes me
