Well, after alot of delays, its time to check out the event details, entry form and a map of directions.
Attached is info that you need to know about the race.
-Pre entry is appreciated by faxing the form to Ventoux Cycles on the number provided. We can't take any money off entrants until rego because we haven't got the facilities to do so this time around. Please pay your entry fee in cash when you register at the event. We understand this is prehistoric but it is the only option we have at the moment.
-The parking for the event has been a bit of a hassle. State Forests of NSW won't allow all the entrants to park on the side of the road heading up the mountain so we have to park the entrants vehicles at the base of the mountain and shuttle everyone up. This has been done before and it has been a bit of a hassle but we will get it right. We will shuttle people up to the rego and finish area as the transport is full and begin shuttles at 9am. Rego is open from 8am so try and get up there by then. Please arrive as early as you can to get things underway. There is a vehicle running all day from the finish area to entrants cars but please take the things up the mountain that you will need. This is the way it has to be, I've tried to have it all my way but they won't permit it. Without State Forests help though we don't have a race on our wicked track. We're doing whatever it takes to stage it.
-A map of directions is attached also. If you follow this map and don't make any dodgey turns you shouldn't have any trouble. When you turn off the Pacific Highway from north or south, you will drive up Bruxner Park Rd. This road is sealed and winds up a hill. When the road flattens out, the forest gets thicker. Stay on this road, don't turn off it! Follow the road through the winding forest until it flattens out and the forest turns into tall trees. You will see a bus shelter on the right hand side before a bridge. Turn left here into Mt Coramba Rd. The dirt road starts here and there is plenty of peoples' homes. These residents have had trouble with downhillers before so please drive slowly (no more than 20km please) and respect their homes. Parking is at the base of the mountain as directed.
-The Plantation Hotel is hosting the after party (please refer earlier post for details)> It is an all age event with great entertainment from Black Phoenix Films, a great dinner menu and a nice bar. Those who get into rego early on Saturday morning will recieve a VIP pass from me to a show that night at the Planto, they are worth $30 and the act is pretty bloody good.
-Coffs Harbour Cycle club is putting on the catering for the event, toilets are catered for, some product tents are on show, great shuttle vehicles will be on hand, plenty of awesome spots for spectating and photos, an unbelievable track and a great after party. It will be a fantastic event and with your co operation we'll make it the best.
Remember, please take the things you need with you when you get shuttled up the first time. There is a mighty track awaiting your riding style.
Some final details may change so please stay tuned. Thanks to our great sponsors listed on the event flyer and the event details.
