Shame
Very disappointed to be hearing this event is finishing. I did the first two and thought it was awesome and I'd have done all 4 if possible.
Definitely an event worth trying if you've never done it
Looks like it's down again.
I was just trying to download the rider pack to see if there was any info I was missing but I'm sure I'll be OK
Assuming it goes something like....
Start at 8am
Ride 99km
Play nice
Watch out for the Yowie
Does that cover it?
24hr Cancelled due to lack of interest? !!
This came as a massive surprise.
All our crew got a call or an email from the organisers yesterday saying that they were scaling the event back to a 12hr because they have had such poor take-up for the 24hr.
We were all stunned, just naturally...
I'm in the same boat, I did all 4 races.
Based on points from all 4 I'm on the podium however as it's best of 3 I'm down the list and out of the running.
It's only disappointing now the results are in but I knew the rules from the start so can't complain or claim it's a surprise!
Hopefully...
Crunch crunch
Cool, not a very exciting task I'm sure, but much appreciated (even by the non competitive racers!)
Spot on!!! This thread was starting to look like it was beyond hope. Roll on round 4 I say, the first 3 have been brilliant
Couldn't agree more
100% agree. Keep doing what you're doing guys the first two rounds have been brilliant.
They have been fun, friendly, well organised and had a different spin each time in terms of the style of racing and personality of the clubs. Spot on
Update anyone?
Any kind of update on the state of the Beaconsfield course would be gratefully received!
Is it...
A) A bit muddy but plenty rideable with a sensible setup
B) Proper muddy but hey it's winter, toughen up - better pack the shoe spikes and full mud tyres.
C) Holy shit you...
yep spot on.for buller you want a tubeless setup with either full UST or tubeless ready tyres with reinforced sidewalls such as schwalbe snakeskin. pinchflats and tears from the rocks is what will get you if you run lightweight race tyres with tubes. any medium tread will work well. go for 2.2...
