Outrage silenced as park turned into 'dangerous mud bath' by cyclocross race recovers in time for Parkrun six days later... cycling
The controversy over a cyclocross event in Brighton which left a park a"quagmire" and a"dangerous mud bath", attracting fury from some residents and councillors, appears to be a thing of the past as the ground has now largely dried out and recovered.
"The initial fears about the state of the park were not completely unjustified as there was a lot of mud on Sunday when we finished," the club explained. "It's always tough organising events and, like every event organiser, we look to minimise the impact upon other facility users whenever we host anything. Hopefully we can work with all the park stakeholders next year to ensure the continued success of the event."The early week was dominated by local news reports detailing the"mess" created by the event, accompanied by pictures such as the ones below and complaints from local politicians and some residents.
Cllr Platts told Brighton and Hove News several residents had contacted her to express their"shock" at the mud. "I just don't think it's acceptable to turn the park into that mud bath and I think a lot of people are really shocked by it."
