Yeah, I tried to enter a couple on the course Dowsett set the national 10 record but was rejected cause LFGSS isn't affiliated to ECCA. Still havent had my money back actually! My PB was on the F10/10 north of Ware which was described to me as 'a bit rolling'.

Yep, good call. @cjr where was your PB set?
Ah, F10/10. I think the F20/10 was a fast course? They resurfaced it but it was still quick I believe. But it's not run very often, so you're probably better off riding some of the other courses whilst working on your position and training. Then hit a few fast courses once your times are coming down.

Many events on fast courses get over subscribed and you need to post a fast qualifying time even to get a chance at a ride. However some clubs run the occasional 'slowest 100' riders events which give a chance for slower riders to ride a quick course. Depending on where you set your current PB, a decent ride on one of the fast courses could easily shave 60, 90 or more seconds off your current time.
