2013 XC NPS Rd5 - Slade Valley 9th june
« on: May 28, 2013, 11:51:31 AM »
On to round 5 which we are hosting up in Slade Valley on the 9th June.

As before we'll have another deadly course and different than the last 2 races we held there. Some sections we have used before and some will be new.
But as usual it will be fun, fast in places, tough in others with a few short kicker climbs thrown into the mix.  ;D

So the dust has settled on the race weekend, so just time for a few thanks.! Firstly thanks to the land owners who with out them there would be no event, Coillte for the use of the woods and Sean Healy for the parking. Adventure Branding for the signs. Shane Lavelle for doing a great job as commissar.! Paul the DJ who is becoming a famillar face at these events. The lads from Last Lap Cafe for keeping us fed and watered. The Order of Malta for medic cover, thankfully they had a quite weekend.! Biking.ie for a lend of their podiumJon for the website work. Action Pictures Ireland and all the other snappers for the deadly shots.!
Everyone in the club who helped out with digging days, planning, behind the scenes, marshaling and parking..! A few special mentions to for some key people, Leo McGarr & family who were a great help,Trevor Murphy, Mick Farrel, Davey Dunne, Colm Keane and Jim Haide who played a stormer..!! Jim did alot of work behind the scenes which took some of the load off me, so thanks Jim  :)
And finially the club sponsors, The Cycle Inn, Pure Power Systems, Machinebook.com & Haribo for their support.

In trems of the race for the club, there were some great preformances..... Starting with Adam who is 12 and racing in U14 and got on the podium... I think thats his first NPS podium this year.!
Anto the Mummy has been sick all week, but pulled it out of the bag on home turf.!  ;) Ryan, David and John all having good races. Then there was Scott coming in 5th in S4.. Better than he does in Enduro, eh scott   ;) Sean getting an impressive 2nd in S2 and jim taking 4th.

On the sat relay, we got all teams on the podium... Sean, Jim & James ending Team Worc dominance in the Pro cat (about time).! In the sport cat we had Colin, scott and Adrain on the top step and then Ryan, Adam & Johnny coming in 3rd place. And smithers in 1st with a mixed youth squad team.

Overall it was a pretty good weekend, with great weather and some hot racing.! Roll on the last round in G-Ride.
