Bathurst 2017

I hope our visiting Marshals are enjoying the barmy 15C, Rain and 13 Km/Hr winds...if anyone is in contact...warn them of hypothermia (believe it or not) and dehydration.

Also be very aware of what people in the crowd do when the race ends...bottle throwers etc etc

Good race so far

That's quite reasonable weather. Now, if we could have similar in Feb next year, minus the rain of course.

The 15 was middle a day like...when the sun starts to drop behind one side of the mountain, with wind, it can be quite uncharitable. There have been years when Marshals were medevac'd off, off the mountain (love saying off, off!)

Yeah, I've since heard it was rough, sympathies to those that had to go to med centre. Happened a few years back at Brands Hatch - a meeting in April, temp still in single figures combined with rain and a cold wind bowing it right into our faces.
Some posts were fine, but if you were exposed to the wind it was difficult.
