I'm going to try to be there around 10.30

Aim to leave at 8.30, 2hours is plenty of time to get there and get a coffee on the way.  :)

That was some days racing. Track was great lots of single track.
Some tough climbs killed me. By the end of lap two my legs had given up on me.
Thanks to all the encouragement from Eric Leo and the gang. I keep going and managed to complete the last lap. Feeling it today, legs are like ???

Fantastic course, some great little technical decents and some horrible climbs. I had a battle with a thorn bush on the first lap which left me looking like i had been bet with some barbed wire, it felt that way too. Other than that great day out really enjoyed the course underage course was super technical too and all the lads hammered it not a bother. A great turnout form the club.
