Only electric events currently as we no longer have access to Mallusk and the field we have doesn't support winch or bungee very well

Hi Ger,
apologies for the late reply. I was waiting for the last minute before I did. The forecast looks like it may be cloudy and wet so I will give it a miss this year. I hope I am wrong though.

Best of luck

Ralph
