Hey Nagridder, are you racing the Urban Assault?

 

When/where is that?

[Captain Fastbastard Mayhem]

It WAS today. But I'm not surprised you didn't hear about it. Suffered a chromic lack of marketing and advertising this year around...

[Iwan Kemp]

Have entered for the 24th. Who else is going?

[Captain Fastbastard Mayhem]

just printed the form...

[clement]

Still need to print the form but I'll be there

[Headshot]

Going to try - some parenting responsibilities to resolve before then...

[(Deon)]

I'm game.. I'll drag my fat unfit asset around the trails on the 24th..

Don't worry about the travel! If it's anything like the last ones, you could do it on a hardtail with NO travel!

my entry was made a week back, and was confirmed yesterday. So I'm IN!

Okay cool,

 

whats to expect? from what i understand everyone will be riding blind (i.e cannot ride there in advance).. Should i be training? at gspot... HAHA!! will there be any climbing involved, or is it more like DH2, Vasbyt, Mamba stuff out at tokai?

oooooh, there'll be climbing!

 

Probably like your average day out at Tokai, but more fun cos of the atmosphere and the thrill of racing. Climbing to the trail heads, riding, chatting, etc...

lots of mamba at speed will help because most of the enduro routes will not go straight down like DH1,2 etc. but ride anything and everything, and ride alot. Give your bike a proper shakedown so you get to know her properly.
