YYMTBInc. Club Race-Cressy Descent 18th to19th September.

[Brown Dog]

Ok people the You Yangs MTB Incorporation is holding its first club race on Track 13 on the 18th and 19th of September. This will be a timed race from top to bottom.

The reason we chose this track is it will give people who don't usually race an opportunity to have a go and step up with a track that i am sure everyone is familiar, this will also give the XC riders a chance to see if they can for once try and get one over the Downhiller. Track 13 will also be the perfect time for the young ones to have a go.

CASH AND PRIZES UP FOR GRABS​

DATE- 18th to 19th September

TIME- Saturday practice 10:00am - 4:00pm rego open from 9:00am
Sunday practice 8:00am -12:00pm racing from lunch time onwards.
Sunday rego will close at 10:00am

REGO- Bottom of track 13

Shuttles- Yes, they will pick you up from bottom of track 13 and turn
around at Stockyards car park

PRICE- $60 with MTBA racing membership

Sounds good!

Have you got a limit on numbers? I'm definately going to try and get down there for it. Should be a fun weekend!

 

[ajay]

Awesome! Will this have the same rules as a downhill race? As in fullface, bar ends, etc?

 

[RGN]

? full face helmets

Maybe it should be a XC sprint. There will be a lot of people(like me) who do not have a full face helmet.

 

[Gravity Addict]

should be so sweet

 

[Staunch]

Can't wait, will be sweet
If you rego for sunday only will it be cheaper?
Know that track like the back of my hand and don't think I can make it up both days...
Either way, should be good

 

[krusty66]

Hire one...? I think enforcing the standard DH race rules is a step in the right direction... as it is essentially being run as a DH track, albeit slightly easier than the rest!

Count me in.

 

[dl79]

Can't wait, such a fun trail to ride.

 

[kill_switch]

[sedifus]

no hardtail only?

Together with duallies they would probably do better. There's probably not a need

 

[jasonmun]

Awesome! Is there anywhere that we can get the breakdown of the classes/categories?

I'm dead keen on this, wont have a DH bike by then, but my body armor should be here this week.

Guess my XC bike will get a bit of a beating instead

I imagine a XC bike or hardtail will be the fastest down just casue you can crank like crazy and be super efficient.

wish i had the weekend free would be interested to see how fast/slow I go down cressys

I was thinking this too, though there are a couple of hits in there that I'd love a DH bike for
