MAJOR CHANGES IN THREE SHIRES MANAGEMENT
With barely three weeks to go to the September 18 event, the organising team for the Three Shire Stages has undergone a major revision.
The closed-road event based in Ledbury is the penultimate round of the Asphalt Rally Championship.
Neil Cross, clerk of the course for the Nicky Grist Stages in July, was due to be clerk of the course for the Three Shires but recently stood down from the role. In his place has come Alyn Edwards, the prime mover for the Cambrian Rally in North
Wales, and an assistant clerk of the course on Wales Rally GB. Edwards has brought other key players to the organising team including Andrew Kellitt, Alan Stoneman and Keith Ashley.
Collectively the new team members have vast experience of rally organisation and are quickly getting up to speed with the plans for the Three Shires, which features three runs through each of four special stages on closed roads in Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire.
