Sport round-up





Three developments, all good news for sports enthusiasts, and one a sensible compromise.
- First of Thriplow Cricket Club has won some funding from South Cambs to improve its practice nets, which I was very pleased to back;
- Secondly, the work being done by Thriplow Parish Council to connect Heathfield with Thriplow means there will in future be a bridleway forming a loop to the south of the Whittlesford-Thriplow track, providing a diversion for those Whittlesford equestrians who brave the motorway bridge to get to the better riding country over there. I'm writing to the footpaths officer at the county to give my abosolute support;
- And finally the F1 racing tests at Duxford this coming year will be governed by some sensible arrangements which mean the testing can continue while not driving (!) some people living and working nearby nuts with the noise. This was the compromise brokered at the turn of the year and discussed in January at a public meeting at the museum where all shades of opinion were voiced.
