MTB Events
Looking for NSW events in next 2 months.
Hi there... new to site/forum. Been riding for approx 3 yrs now (progressed to Giant Trance). Ride stuff like the Rim track at Red Hill, the obligatory Manly Dam, even been down to the Mogo track (tho not for the Angry Doctor).
Currently looking for a good event in NSW to enter (either as single or team) that is occurring in the next 2 months (aware of Dirtworks - also aware sold out).
Be great if anyone has any suggestions.
Cheers.
Heading for the Mont - have readable number plates [cops]
Heading to the Mont ....
Our forward scout Bernd reports that the cops are out in force and have pulled over several cars with bikes hanging on the back, covering their plates. Please make sure you are not in for the $ 300 fine. I have a "improvised, but readable plate" until the ordered plates from RTA arrive.
Good luck!

If anyone is intrested call me on 0438 640907 or PM me and I'll get in contact.

MTB motard racing
I was fortunate enough to catch wind of a 'test' race being held tonight at St Ives, around H.A.R.T.
Turramurra Cyclery used to hold a Wednesday night crit race round there before the powers that be made them shut it down as it wasn't a sanctioned event!
The clever way around this is to hop on a mountain bike and do half off road and half on road racing(motard)
About 20 people turned up tonight for the 'test' run so we could all get a feel for how it would be and give feedback at the end.
Well! what can i say apart from BLOODY AWESOME!
XCO Series
Is there or is there not going to be a NSW XCO series or just a championship event? Looks like the calendar is just about full, what with enduros and club xco rounds. Will state series now die forever?

Anaconda MTB Enduro - Alice Spirngs
I've entered the Anaconda MTB Enduro in Alice Spirngs which is a 5 day 7 stage event from May 10 - 14.
Great way of seeing and exploring the red centre, and see what MTB trails are on offer out there.
Is there anybody else from the area, thinking about or has entered the event ?
Has anybody done the event before, and has any tips / advice etc.

Dirtworks- can you ride the course before the race?
In preparation for the Dirtworks event in May I am doing regular training.
My question is- Are you able to ride the course prior to the race? I know some is over private land....trying to ride namely the great big mongrel of a Hill at about the 10km mark I was hoping to be able to do.
Cheers
Tom
