Trail League part 2/3

Just a few images to capture the atmosphere for this 2nd part of the Trail League. As you can see the weather was fabulous again! Around the first corner into the race a great stag was seen, not sure if he wanted to join the race as well and unfortunately we didn't get a picture of him!
The results of the 2nd run can be downloaded here (pdf)
