Silly me I am running a bit behind..... Bugger I wanted to go and find out what was happening as well.
Time to go and find some details if possible. I will report back here once I find out. Cheers for pointing out my error. I need a coffee!

Except the MtnX/freeride which will actually be thursday 7pm glenbrook.

These meeting toss around ideas and hopefully find people to make them reality rather than set exact dates and venues for the races.

Not a great deal out of the XC or DH meeting to be made public just yet.

Lot of ideas to try and revive XC numbers but at this stage they are still ideas and need further nutting out between the co ordinators and the potential hosting clubs.

Cheers Flynny,
I was hoping to provide some input from a competitors point of view. I feel as though I should have more input in these things if im going to take part in them rather than turn up race then bugger off.

I will put a couple of thoughts together tonight and then PM you with them. Maybe we should start a thread on ideas for the series as well for those interested....
just a thought.

Craig Armour, Dagonz on Farkin is the man to talk to re the xc series

Just remember ideas as good but help implementing them is even betterer. Often we have the same ideas already but lack the man power/time/knowhow to implement them

Thanks Flynny
I might have to put my hand up to start getting involved with these a bit more. As you said it needs man power to get things moving forward. It sounds like we thinking along the same lines. most of the thoughts I had were about getting more people to help to spread the workload so that these events dont rely on a select few.
I will be in touch with Craig Armour over the next few days.
