Shame the road run has drawn co much police attention too.
I noticed that the Fowler K5 was getting through some big logs while parading the arena .
I enjoyed the day on the whole , plenty to see and not enough time to see it all .
For me the lack of a showman's line up was not an issue , photography I found to be easier .
