Raging I'm gonna miss this one. The points from my first round don't count so I'm out of any decent placing for the series. Always next year

Ah and we thought you were going to be the next Glenn by winning the league in your rookie season :-)

Generally you can sign on the day but might cost you a fiver extra

[Ger]

I have not seen anything to say you cannot so will probably go up tomorrow.

Bit of a muck fest today, reminiscent of Cong last year. Zero grip in some of the mud slides, sorry corners and climbs  . No idea how anyone did and I think everyone was just happy to finish without any mechanicals. Had a very graceful dismount over the bars into a bank of nettles, legs are still tingling, would not recommend it

Ouch fair play anyway Ger sure that slomp mostly suits you better than most

Good man for racing and finishing Ger.

Well done folks..! Sounded like a very tough race. From looking at the results, seems like the club didnt fair too well up there apart from Dave Askin who had a great result in S2

Not when it's slimey though Paulie! As Ger said the weather played havoc with the course but it was the same for everyone. It's a public park similar to the phoenix park so I'd guess they are limited in what they can do with benchcutting and hardcore. Well done to xmtb for there effort and organisation. Kudos to Adam in 6th and also to Dave Askin - he was very strong finishing his last lap faster than the previous and just missing out on the spot.
