Would like to try the downhill, but only if they run Masters (40+)  I haven't thrown a leg over a DH rig since I got talked into racing the Canberra nats in 08.
At the moment I'll be happy to run Vets and if possible pre-85.
Unfortunately you're not meant to run more than one class on the day.

Only if they flag me in,,,,, “lunch break” I suppose that’s the official name, but "resuscitation break" is what I am doing,,,,, are you riding Tossa?

Rod,, cant say I will be running a MTB,,,, shit, I haven’t been or the bike since Pinjarra Natural Terrain at the end of last year,,,, munted the back demolishing a house before X mass so its only just getting better,,,, just in time for this event.

Same as last year,,,, should see if the 40+ thin out and jump in if allowed.

FYI, My lad is off to MTB XC Nationals in Adelaide tomorrow,,, busted his collar bone before the state champs last year and he had a big step off last weekend but no fractures,,, same shoulder but deep bruising,,, recons he is going to bench mark for this years under 23 to see where he stands and work required. Cannondale sponsored him this year and they gave him a full carbon Lefty 9.5 kg,, sick. :o

It is just under 3 weeks to The 2011 Equiprent Tumbulgum Natural Terrain MX brought to you by KTM and with entries now in excess of 400, unfortunately some classes are fully subscribed. I apologize for that, maybe you can race in a different class. One day licenses will be available for anyone who requires one.

We are inviting one and all to come and camp at the venue this year; it is $25 for adults and $15 for children 5 - 15 years. That price is for the entire weekend or for a single day. That is outstanding value and you will have no worries about driving home after the Saturday night.

On Saturday night, for the first time, we will have Speedway for bikes. We have Stock bikes, Quads, Solos and Sidecars; this will start at 4pm and finish at 9pm. The track which is 230 metres will impress everyone, and the spectators will have a unique area from which to watch this event.

Yep Nat read the first pargraph and asked Paul if I was on crack, it was one of those you had to be there, though written tongue in cheek, it was a very poor official decision to remove the safety ramp and luckily no-one got seriously injured, i just destroyed the handlebars, wrapped brake around the peg and bruised the body and ego, Mike was lucky not to really damage himself either, plus quite a few others
