Went up for a few practice laps today, great course looks like it will be a good race.

Good luck to everyone racing tomorrow.

Tough and slippery course today. Lots of single track and very little fire road, pity about the rain, I think it stopped a few of the sections from being fast and flowing.

Well done to everyone who raced yesterday some great results, shame it rained so much Saturday night as it made some of the nice fast trail very muddy and difficult to get through.

Great results for Jim Haide 2nd and Sean Feeney 5th in S2 and Ger getting 4th in S3.
John Smithers 4th in U16 and looks like a good battle in U14 with John Quinn 3rd and Adam McGarr only 2seconds behind!!

And well done Paul keeping up his 100% record of not doing a single race all year!! :P

Super racing from all the club!
Leo had a good race with his best result in s3 yet. Jim had a super ride for a strong 2nd and the young lads done deadly as usual!
I didn't have the best race didn't really get into it until the last lap. Happy enough with my result, so I hope for a good over all..

Yeah good results all round lads - good to see so many from the club attending...

That start was mental don't know how many times I nearly came off with all the elbows and shouldering - not for the faint hearted - all twas missing was headbutting like Renshaw in 2010 tour  >:( after that it was a real battle through the muddy sections but I handled it better as the race went on or else it was dispersing.  Happy to come away with 2nd.

Thanks for bottles again Adam.

You get any good shots Paul?
