We will be hosting a club come and try day in conjunction with I-ride bikes who will be supplying bikes for newcomers and oldcomers alike to try out. At this stage we envision running a whole morning of riding around the trails on the demo bikes with ore experienced riders guiding some of the new comers perhaps in groups. I would love it if people could post their ideas on how this day should go with activities that they had in mind.
Further to the demo and ride side we would like to link in a DX race down Turkey at the end of the day so that the newcomers get a look at racing and DX suits both DH and XC. There is a fair bit of organisation required for this and I would love people to express some interest in the roles required.
I have listed some of the jobs below but I am sure there are more.
Canteen volunteers to be run all morning and some of the afternoon.
Registration for both demo side and DX race. The club and I-ride can cover the cost of the social day licenses required but we will still need to register them for insurance purposes.
Organise permit with council to hold event.
Maybe someone to do parking and arrange signage the day before. No bunting will be required for the DX as we can explain on the day where to go.
At this stage I think Push/ ride run of DX will be the best option instead of the extra hassle of shuttles. We will need one person at the top of the DX with a walkie talky letting riders off and perhaps two doing the timing down the bottom.
Someone to organise toilets.
Steve to promote through various forms of media the week leading into the event.
Anyway please post up your interest in helping out and any other ideas or jobs that you wanted to mention.
Cheers
Ryan
