Hi all

RAMBO is GO for 2012!

Online entries are now open at https://www.registernow.com.au/mtba/ERegister.aspx?E=1016

We are offering a Series entry this year - 5 x 3hr races for $40 (that's $40 for all 5 - $8 per race!) if you enter online. We are encouraging as many people to do this as possible, as it makes race day much smoother, and will certainly make collating the Series results much easier.

To qualify for Series prizes, riders need to compete in at least 3 of the 5 events.

More info available on the link above - venues, dates etc.

Hope to see you there.

Hey
just thought I'd put out a big thanks to all the organisers
of the first round at Bright
the weather turned out ok and although the rain o/night did
have a marked affect on the tracks it was awesome fun
Thanks to the wandering minstral in the pines! The guitar playing was
much appreciated and fun too.
Next round Mt Beauty, lets see how the legs shape up for that!

Thanks to all the ground crew at Bright for a well run event. The course was great fun and the track got better and more grippy as the race went on.
