As we enter September, and the last few weeks before the event the organising team are busy ensuring everything is falling into place, which does happily appear to be the case so far. My 'to do' list is slowly getting shorter although every time two things get crossed off another seems to appear, but its going in the right direction.

Entries - Since my last update some of our original March entrants have dropped out and so all of the reserves have now got a run. In fact, we are just short of a full entry so if you wanting an entry its not yet too late.

Marshalling - If you're not out competing but are free on the day we would be very pleased to see you and have your help marshalling on a test or one of the road sections. We have about 250 locations that need a marshal on the day. Please contact the chief marshals marshals@tourofcheshire.co.uk
