But to get some of the trails into proper order will take a bit longer, like snakes and ladders, although depends if your using that or not.

Too be honest you might be better now calling it the 2008 champs and running it in the summer, with the weather the way it is and people training for the kcup. Might be an idea to scrap it until we run our summer league and have the club champs then and we have the course in tip top condition, i dont think there is enough time to get anything proper done, better off taking time and getting some cool trails built and then use them for the champs and summer league. What you think!

I agree with Dave.  Then you'll have Niall around aswell and also be more likely to get a good turnout and be assured of weather.  What about the weekend following the Nationals (26th/27th july) or a few weeks before (5th/6th or 12th/13th)?  Might work better in that we could run a downhill day aswell.  People will have the new kit too.

How many members are there now Dave?

Still yet to confirm, but would say its easily closing in on 50, with a few here or there. Really good now, yea we could run a mini DH champs day too, all at the same venue, would be really cool.

Post by: squeak on February 04, 2008, 08:59:11 PM
yeah wa thinking that possibly..
Title: Re: Club Champs!
Post by: tadhg on February 04, 2008, 09:12:34 PM
yea thats a good idea to accommidate the dh lads and all
but were can you make a short dh run in hell fire??
thers a couple of possibilities but the hillwalkers are the main problem for dh riding :o
Title: Re: Club Champs!
Post by: Dave on February 05, 2008, 02:28:08 PM
Yea but its only going to be a small event with the lads in the club. We can run the cross country race with the DH lads keeping an eye out and then vice versa for the DH race afterwards. Could easily run it from the house, down to the carpark, easy to do. Be a short course but worth a bit of a laugh.

Perfect, yea you are never going to have so many possible marshalls around for either discipline!
