Weather has forced the hand of the organisers. Gale force winds and rain forecast. All off for now.
I have accommodation booked anyway, and am going to head down as it's a beautiful part of the world! Even in the rain.
The TATHRA MTB ENDURO has been POSTPONED.
The event will now be staged on JUNE 7/8 2014.
Event organiser Andrew Johnson said rider safety and potential environmental issues were behind the decision.
“We have been monitoring the tracks and with the wet and soft soil, trees have been constantly falling,” said Johnson. “With gale force winds and more rain predicted, this is a major safety issue.”
He said the tracks have held up until this morning, but with 250ml of rain in the past month the ground can no longer handle any more water
“To race would be irresponsible, as it would not only jeopardise rider safety, but also destroy our tracks.
“This has been an exceedingly painful decision given the thousands of volunteer hours that have gone into the event. However we want our event to be fun and safe.
“We apologise to people who have travelled to the area for the weekend, but we found it necessary to make an early decision to minimise inconvenience,” Johnson added.
Tathra MTB tracks are now CLOSED.
Any riders heading to Tathra this weekend should throw in a surfboard, as the surf conditions are predicted to be good.
