Yellomundee MTB Grand Prix 2008

All,

After scoping out the track today with my teammate for the first time we though ya'll could benefit from some basic tips.

1. Going from Sydney along m4 to Hawksbury Rd is way better then trying to figure out Mulgoa/Castlereigh Rd and suchwhat
2. Dont rely on the 1999 street map of Sydney, there appear to have been significant changes to the above-mentioned Castlereigh Rd since then
3. If you have a navigator, make sure he/she has actually scoped out the route to Yellomundee
4. Ensure your bike bits are tight as suppose to be, yes even including the seat...
5. As its too late for this year, make a note to have unnecessary appendages trimed before the event (like the useless little finger)
6. Closing your eyes shortly before the disaster does not reduce the pain
7. The track is quite sandy in spots, choose the right tyres or.... refer point 6

good luck to all that are heading along, please dont laugh at me as I walk my bike up the tricky sections - I will just be recovering from the lap I did today !
