I was at this years event helping out a couple of English entrants. What a tough event. Great riding but badly organised not for the faint hearted.

Never been to a big event that was well organized for the entrants (for the spectators it's usually well done) ....... Had some correspondence with Jimmy Lewis when he did the Erzberg Rodeo, and he said that they didn't even speak a single word of English.
