Pretty sure that Duggleby's comp record was the Bentley course not the Breckland course which Joe (sort of) did 325 on. The finishing circuit of the Bentley course is much faster than that on the Breckland course as it's all DC, whereas the finishing circuit on the Breckland course is rather lumpy and twisty SC stuff. Overall I'd say the Bentley course is faster, but I've only ridden each one once so it's difficult to compare.
Brommers-
I've never ridden Breckland but ridden #fuckloads on the A31. It was faster than all the other 12s I'd done for me because it was the only one I raced before the 24hr (but it's also probably faster). But I always wanted to ride Breckland because that's where Wilko did his 317. Never got the timings right though. The plan was to race it this year and go for 300+ but that ain't happening.

If the Newbury course is run again they won't use the shorter finishing circuit.
There were complaints last time that it gave some riders an advantage depending on when they switched on to it.
Shame as the finishing circuit gave riders something to look forward to.

Is it though? Isn't it the same course Wilko had the 317 Comp Record on?
Where did Duggleby do his 321?
