Bill, you will be ok on the clubman class at the norther experts, we did make it a bit hard a couple of years ago but we now know the type of riders who want to ride. All good straight sections. See you there SR
For me the lakes clubman course is about spot on, there were three or four sections that i would describe as "iffy" the rest fine. Its just a hard trial & yes if you think its too much theres always the option to observe!
