With great reluctance it has been decided to cancel the 2010 edition of the Ron Brown Memorial 100.
On the 4th July, the day of the race, the Alton and North East Hants Show (an equestrian event) is to be held at the Froyle Park Showground - just next to the start and in the middle of the course.
This will cause an intolerable amount of traffic and would make the time trial, at best, a dangerous lottery.
Therefore, in the interest of safety, and with a view to avoiding endangering the future use of the course, the organiser has decided the only option open to him is cancellation.
