David D Posted April 16, 2015 Share Hi All. Sorry I've been a little quiet lately. Things are looking really good for the weekend. A little rain on Thursday and Friday will leave the trails perfect for the weekend. Leave the mud tires at home as Gibe rides best in the wet. Nice and gravely. Without giving too much away there will be stage starts at the top of "Gravity Dice", the top of "Main Line" and the beginning of the "Freeride trail" above the house. The trails are largely existing trails but we have added in a whole lot of newly cut links, so you will be coming into sections from a new angle. Your welcome to ride at the park on Friday afternoon. I will still be marking trails so please don't run me over! You should be able to find at least 50% of the trails by then and a good guess will find you the rest. There will be 4 stages and we expect a winning total time of about 20min. You can ride stage 1,2 and 3 in any order, but have to ride stage 4 last. (We always save the best for last). Pre-Entrys are a bit low, but I am sure there will be a lot of later entries as this is one not to miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray J Posted April 16, 2015 Share Nige, are we allowed POV cams in practice runs?I used my Go Pro for the St Ives and Cascades practice without anyone complaining but best to get the go ahead from the top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
