Spoonie Whats the chances he moves the the Nowra round{ I think I just checked the website and the date is gone again} to stop the clash with the state series but opens the appin round on the day of schools race. My only consolation is that its at appin which i wouldn't exactly class junior friendly.

99.9% sure it's Sparrow Hill. I understand the organisers of the World's don't want lead-up events like the ACT schools championships (Friday 28/8/09) and the 8 hr (Sunday 30/8/09) roaring around Stromlo so close to their big event. So that's why the schools event is at Majura and the 8 hr at Sparrow.
Suits me!

Team mate wanted "Junior"

We are looking for a team for our Son to ride with at Sparrow 8hr.
He is 11 years old and has done some events before.
His last solo race was a 3 hr which he finished.
Any Junior teams looking for a rider please give me a call

Is anyone here in a position to provide some details about this weekend ?

Will there be any chance of a Sat arvo rego?
Lap length or layout confirmed?

If the rain brings the track up to the level it was for the Mont this year it will be sensational !!!

According to the event's web page
http://www.enduromtb.com/index.php?...rticle&id=72:week-6&catid=63:week-6&Itemid=87

- laps are around 14km, and pre-rego is open Saturday 14:00 - 20:00, with rego on Sunday being from 06:00 - 08:00. (Is there a difference between pre-rego and rego, really? Not sure...)

Seriously considering this for my first "true" endurance event, not counting half the Three Ring Circus. Sparrow will be just primo with this weather :D

the sparrow was chased..

i thought yesterday went really well

the timing was tops u could finish ya lap and ur time was up instantly, it was great to follow things at the pointy end..

there even was series result(sorry i didnt stick around for ur preso my legs were about to snap from the cold)

watching some world champ riders battle it out was impressive i seen the nz guys do a transition and blast up the fireroad with the whole crowd watching like it was a model strutting her stuff on the catwalk..(all heads turn to follow the action)..

how many raced?????

well done stu..

I see castech's timing is online here too, so there is some results.

Some impressive timing as you say chops, shame I missed seeing you out there bro, I guess you were probably flying past me too quick for me to make you out :)

And yes, a well run race, a top day out indeed!

Another great day at Sparrows... can those trails possibly get any better ??!!

I did a ride on Sat arvo and the worn Small Block 8 on the rear really didnt like the conditions at all... (so I put a less worn one on)
First lap on Sunday was a little better, but after a few laps that back half of the track was pure bliss. If I could put that in a bottle and sell it, I would be a wealthy man.

Nice to see the internationals smashing the course too.
