Fantastic to see such a good turn out by the club....And there is still another 6 or 7 regular racers not signed up yet..  8)

Having rode the course today, its not to be missed...!! We dont often get a race this close to home.  :)

Cool race, cool course. Very strong wind going up that fireroad!

Were the times adjusted to allow that Experts started 2 mins after Masters and not 1 min?

Now why were you asking that :)

Paul Barry           IMBRC   37   0:28:24   0:31:34   0:31:45      1:31:43
Michael Cummins   IMBRC   10   0:30:34   0:30:37   0:30:55      1:32:06

23 Seconds!

Tough course yesterday, MX (the first single track after the long flat fireroad) was the highlight for me.  Killer kicker and sweet deadly drop afterwards.
