Post by: Scott B. on March 13, 2014, 02:49:32 PM: Dear Seasonened mtb racer's I am wondering what is better for S3-nps/club league race practice??? Should I be aiming to complete the Superpro in the Blitz..... or lash around 2 laps in the Baggies...?
Also with a top 10 finish in the last Blitz is it 'unsporting' to go out in that cat again??

Top ten in baggies is a good result Scott and based on that I would say you should move up, the extra distance will stand to you more over the season. Although if you think you could get a podium in baggies go for it, give it a final lash in baggies and then move up cat.

Dont think I'll get to this one either so best of luck to all racing

Post by: JohnS on March 15, 2014, 05:51:34 PM: I was up there earlier and there is still some trees down on the new trail, they built a shortcut around it but definitely try to get a practice run at it before the race because you can miss it easily!
And Good luck to everyone racing tomorrow :)

Post by: Paul on March 16, 2014, 09:55:26 PM: Great turn out today from the club. The blue jerseys really stand out.

Well done to Adam and Banger (my name is Caldwell) on the wins ;D. Gareth also on the podium in juniors. Some great performances in super pro too from Jim,rob,Ger,Dave,colin,chopper and Leo. Did I forget anyone? And to marek who beat me by one place. They have my surname wrong in the results.

Bad luck to Scott and macker who had mechanicals.

Haha, I saw IMBRC jersey near end with corner of my eye, that you catching up. I looked up before, no one was there so I was going more or less easy, but at the end had to push a bit >:(
And yeah, first lap did in black jacket, then things went bit hot, so dropped that on tarmac section and was in my race jersey :P (dont have IMBRC jersey, need one for Eurochamps :( )
