The IHRO Continental Circus decamped from Schleiz in Germany to Chimay in Belgium for the 3rd race of this year’s series. The weather this year was not as kind as in the past with showers all weekend causing disruption. This played into the hands of some of the ‘wet weather specialists’ as many riders were not sure about riding down the Armco lined hill in wet conditions.
