Not sure how replacing signs like for like around the course ever became so controversial. I guess we'd all be complaining about a lack of investment if they were just left to rot and never replaced.
Sorry, but that's just a crock of cr*p They were never showing there age, they were mile markers for the benefit of the riders, they were always kept up a standard. They would never have been left to rot. They were not replaced because of there condition, they were replaced as a part of the change in branding. Who mentioned it being controversial? I just mentioned a personal opinion.
What I don't understand is why are you making things up just to continue a thread?

Maybe we should agree to disagree here, after going through this on the 'New signs' thread a while back.
My point then was, basically, how long was it since those signs were replaced?
It feels like it wasn't that long ago, so, perhaps, were being replaced for some other reason?
I have to hold my hand up & say that I never noticed the general condition of the them (riding too fast....not!😂 ) & perhaps they had seen better days,
I just expected them to last a bit longer.
Maybe, as has been alluded to, they will all appear on an auction site, like previous ones, but I'm not suggesting that as a reason to replace them...honest!

Captain, they weren't replaced because of there condition, they were replaced as part of the rebranding excise, that's not my opinion, its a fact which I wish I could mention the source.
I few of them have already been donated to various places ( same as the scoreboard) and some did indeed go up for auction, but not all, like the old fuel fillers.
The old scoreboard was never going to be replaced like for like, a digital solution fulfils a number of things, the main one being to remove people from that area as well as the ability to generate potential advertising revenue.
But even I am drawing a blank as to where the clock is!
