i hope not the black route, it can't be cause it won't be accommodating to the nippers. The last couple of events was all non technical courses. There was no drop offs or any chicken runs but it could just be because of the venues that were used.

Was my son's first XCO race today. It was an eye opener for him. According to him the climb was quite tough. He will be back for more. Now he wants to give up Hockey to focus more on Cycling.

 

Weather played ball and was excellent.

Not sure what the starting times are but i found this, Registration tomorrow is from 7am - 12. Prize giving will be approximately at 3:30pm, so i would assume racing would be from 12-3pm?
