Howdy all, welcome to the next event!
Coffs Downhill is staging another race on Sunday 19th April 2009 at the usual venue on Mt Coramba in Coffs Harbour but it is on a different track. We are not using the usual track because the road is dodgy at the moment. We have a new track to use which is called "The Bowl". It starts on the hill after the finish of the State track and finishes down near the cattle grid at the base of the hill. Shuttles will be easier on this track but the track is relatively short and some new lines are yet to be ridden. A lot of the track is open and requires some pedaling so if you like it may suit a hardtail instead of your DH bike. There will be some very fast sections and there is a lot of new soggy off camber stuff so keep your eyes on. There is a section where we need to cross the road so we will need people to listen to instructions on the day of that procedure. We want to run a morning session of practice runs and do some timed race runs closer to lunch time. We will begin rego at 8am with practice runs to follow shortly after that. Timed runs will begin after 11am.
Entry fees will be similar to the usual - $10 race entry plus $15 for a day license (unless you are already an MTBA member which you can become by visiting www.mtba.asn.au).
We will most definitely need a driver for the morning so if your Mum or Dad is keen to save some money and score you a free race entry then please let me know beforehand and I can make you famous on the day.
I've attached a copy of the entry form. There is two copies (one is for riders who have an MTBA license and the other is for those who need a day license). If you could print one out each time you plan on racing and fill it out before you come along that would save some time. I will also require each person who has an MTBA license to present it every time they race or they will have to do the day license thing, rules are rules guys, please bring your card so I know you aren't yanking my chain.
There is some fresh new stuff to get your teeth into so come along and have a blast!
Print out your relevant entry form and fill her out, see you on the hill!
Please remember to read the thread linked in my signature about the Bruxner Park Rd closure. To get to Mt Coramba you need to go north on the Pacific Highway and turn into Bucca Rd. You then turn left into Central Bucca Rd and you arrive at the base of Mt Coramba.
