Title: NPS 4
Post by: michaelc on June 16, 2008, 11:07:41 AM

The results are up on Epic's website and MTB Ireland (too slightly different versions). Not too many IMBRC names.


It was a cool course and race though, seemed pretty well organised.

Yeah great course, pity I didn't get to race it.... Back to tubeless asap.  Bloody puncture on the practise lap put paid to my day.  Turns out the spare tube wasnt punctured.  The valve was bent so it wouldnt take air.  Gutted. 

Well done to Epic for a great course and really good organisation from what I saw.  Gauntlet thrown down for us in 3 weeks!

I have to agree... It was a great course and very tough but worth the pain  :)

Well done to the EPIC lads for putting on a great show..!!!

Pity about your race Ben, its a shame you got a flat so close to the start, you would have enjoyed the race..!
