I remember your quotes still, after adding CCW to the schedule years ago (2008?) .. "It's just as safe as CW, it's like two tracks!" And now this. Actually came around in seeing it as being safer than I originally thought. There's a couple spots that can be an issue, no matter the direction. Don't fault you for doing it though.
I still think it was as safe as CW at the time but bikes have gotten faster - especially corner speed - and the track has changed. There are tracks we ran once that couldn't be run now. Things change.
