2013 MTB League.

[bryce]

Its about racing against yourself. I should know, I've been bumping along the bottom of the table in recent races and it doesnt matter as I know I have a knee injury, which I don't like to talk about

It's only about winning when I win

A great nights racing on a super course. Thanks to our 3 S2 riders for raising the standard.
Good to see a few new faces and some old faces floating about to.
Well done Bryce for timekeeping and encouraging everyone. You are a natural!
Thanks to Barry for results.

I was round our old course on Sunday, looks like the trail fairy's have been in with the chainsaws. Wouldn't take long to get a short course cleared to get us started racing in there again.

Any volunteers for next week once the lady dixon race is out of the way?

[brianwilson]

What about Friday night this week instead of racing. Meet up at 7 in car park. Rakes needed.

[johns]

Suits me.

[bryce]

Ill be there on Friday night to help out too.

[barryvankellett]

I'll see how I'm fixed as I have to book my friday night a good while in advance and haven't submitted a release form as of yet. Could maybe call up later on after 7 depending on what time you all are planning to hang around.

[bigpeter151]

I can't do Friday. Already re scheduled my bike night to tonight. Gonna take a blast round Barnetts.

[drummerboy]

Aye suits me as we'll.

[bryce]

I for one am really looking forward to the new course. Short with plenty of options and lines to choose from I think it's gonna be a winner. It's proper XC MTB with plenty of trail and not too much fire road. I'm sure it's going to generate a lot of interest from folk who are beginners/improvers so let's hope the car park can cope.

[manuel6b]

Some great gardening down last night. Thanks to Brian & Ben, Bryce, John, Adrian, Nathan & dad and Gibson. It definitely looks like a great track.

[bryce]

I won't be at the race on Friday night, although I will be up tonight for a bit of maintenance, riding.

[johns]

Don't think there is any racing planned for this Friday.

Anybody interested in helping finish the course off and getting in a few practice laps meet a the house at 7pm tonight.

[bigpeter151]

I can't make this Friday.
If I can get my car back on the road I'm out with the kids....

[bryce]

John, Adi & I were out tonight and got a bit more work done. I can safely say we have done all but Tarmac the course Hopefully this will keep certain members happy

We just need to sort out a couple of directions were the course turns off paths etc and block a few short cuts to remove temptation

[brianwilson]

MTB league on this Friday 7th, we are back to our usual place.
Practice lap at 7.00
Meet at car park.

If possible could mtbers make the effort to help out at club road race on Saturday at Bishopscourt.

[johns]

Who's on timekeeper duty tonight?

[barryvankellett]

Yes, who is stepping up? Has everyone had a turn at it yet? Did everyone get a turn last season? Don't be shy now.

[barryvankellett]

Super nights racing on the new club course.
Excellent race between Adi Booth and Brian wilson, Booth fighting hard to hang onto Brians wheel for the first 3 laps before digging deep and playing his cards near the end and opening up a 6 second lead on the last technical section.

Well done Bryce too, fitness seems to be coming along now.
Shanks ripped a tyre and then took his aggression out on his chain, snapping it with brute power. Still put in 4 fast laps though.

Hard luck to Ben and Peter who both took wrong turns. Maybe we should send you out with a wee map?
