What's the state of PWT these days? It had a pioneering role in the development of the sprint distance, but for the last few years seems to have only consisted of a round in China. www.pwt.org

There was a race in Perth in 2010, but the pwt website is a bit of a shambles.

1.8 million people cannot be wrong.

One that no-one cares about.

But that one is huge compared to Perth East, Perth West, Perth North and Perth South which are located in Perth County, Ontario, about 600 km SW of the Perth in Lanark County, Ontario.

So the Park World Tour is dead. But we now have a Perth World Tour.

We held the race to celebrate the 800th anniversary of Perth. Just over 500 years to wait then?

Graeme, it's a bit longer to wait than that but given the relative size of your Perth versus ours, we probably should have celebrated its centenary with a Park World Tour.

In 1956?

Maybe the centenary of Federation in 2001.
