Now. Where can i find a brick wall...
Probably as bad as our "itching to run a race" syndrome. Pretty frustrating, but on a brighter note the State Round will be in two weeks time, come up and have a run then.FML! Ive got a really bad case of "itching-to-ride" syndrome.
Nah, ive decided to just race at a club level instead as there's generally less riders to compete against, it's far cheaper than the states, and I wouldn't have a chance against the other riders at states lol. I rarely get to ride due to year 11 -- *sigh*. Can't wait to be done with school and uni...Probably as bad as our "itching to run a race" syndrome.

I've never raced and as soon as i go to race my first club round. It races both times I just wanna ride tracks besides mt local.Probably as bad as our "itching to run a race" syndrome. Pretty frustrating, but on a brighter note the State Round will be in two weeks time, come up and have a run then.
In that case, go there to RIDE, not to race. You don't have to go flat out and I know plenty of people that race at a state and national level for a bit of fun, and don't take things seriously.Nah, ive decided to just race at a club level instead as there's generally less riders to compete against, it's far cheaper than the states, and I wouldn't have a chance against the other riders at states lol.

Yeah I know what you mean, but would it still cost a massive $110 bucks just to RIDE there? Or would it cost the normal club fee of $30? I heard it's $110 for every state round except for Thredbo which is $180.In that case, go there to RIDE, not to race.

Man you should get some creme for thatFML! Ive got a really bad case of "itching-to-ride" syndrome.
You will probably have less time on your hands after school and uni, along comes other things-work, parties, dinners, travel, girls, other shit, girls...Nah, ive decided to just race at a club level instead as there's generally less riders to compete against, it's far cheaper than the states, and I wouldn't have a chance against the other riders at states lol.

Yeah I'm using some for the time being until the next ride... Still itchy though.Man you should get some creme for that
Perhaps so. Well I gotta ride more before I finish school and uni then. HahaYou will probably have less time on your hands after school and uni, along comes other things-work, parties, dinners, travel, girls, other shit, girls...
Will be $110 still, but the way I see it, it's worth the experience and great weekend.Yeah I know what you mean, but would it still cost a massive $110 bucks just to RIDE there? Or would it cost the normal club fee of $30? I heard it's $110 for every state round except for Thredbo which is $180.
Your wrong there. I was at a Coffs race a couple of years ago when practise was cancelled for half a day because the busses couldnt get up the road.What will happen in 2 weeks time at the state round if the shuttle road gets really wet and makes it difficult for the buses to get up? Which was a similar circumstance to what happened today. Would practice be cancelled for the day? I've been to a fair few state rounds before but none have been cancelled.
Well if the buses can't get up the road then they can't get up the road. Unfortunately the weather is something that we can't control and we've been very unlucky with it lately trying to hold a race.What will happen in 2 weeks time at the state round if the shuttle road gets really wet and makes it difficult for the buses to get up?

Mate you are sounding like a complete spoiled brat. They cant control the weather no one can, if the bus cant get up then it cant get up. I was at the buller national round where it rained and was to windy to run saturday practice so the whole days practice was cancelled. Weather will always be that big factor with downhill and there will be no way around it.What will happen in 2 weeks time at the state round if the shuttle road gets really wet and makes it difficult for the buses to get up?

If the fireroad is out of action you could always push your bike up the hill.What will happen in 2 weeks time at the state round if the shuttle road gets really wet and makes it difficult for the buses to get up?

Have Fun doing that, have you every tried it. You every tried it I have done it twice and never again lolIf the fireroad is out of action you could always push your bike up the hill.
I have mate, back circa. 1998 - 2000 when I used to race downhill regularly there was never shuttles, even at state races. You had to find someone to drive you up, else you pushed up.Have Fun doing that, have you every tried it. You every tried it I have done it twice and never again lol
Groan. You should do the CORC club races. Almost all of them are push shuttles. Kowen and Majura are epically steep tooIf the fireroad is out of action you could always push your bike up the hill.
Like I said in my post before there was a time when shuttles were not provided...going to Ourimbah nowdays and having a shuttle service is a luxury, I certainly don't mind forking out the cash and I always make sure I thank the driver!Groan.

It is definately a piece of humble pie. I always appreciate a lift after that!
i was trying to ask what sort of alternatives are put in place in the case where this happens or if practice is completely called off. and i can assure you i am not a spoilt brat that expects to get shuttles every time i ride. most of the time i ride i do push runs and i am one of the main trail builders in my area and i have been involved in the process to get legal dh trails in my area. i dont expect it to all happen so easilyMate you are sounding like a complete spoiled brat.
