Hardtails@Cannock Racersguild 23rd Jan

[Alex]

It's this month's timing day on Saturday 23rd!

In a break with tradition, we're running a hardtail special. Leave your big bike at home and bring that hardtail that's just gathering dust. Time to find out whether you've got skills, or whether you've been making up for it with 8" of suspension like me

New race plates will be in use. Please leave your old plates at home. New plates must be returned to the bucket next to the sign in area before you leave.


Sign on from 11am
Start times given out from 11.30am
Timing starts at 12pm
Timing ends at about 3.30ish



Please also remember to put a quid in the tin! Your donations keep Racersguild running.


The Descent-Gear shop will be in attendance, and I'm sure Si will have plenty of shiny 2010 gear for you to ogle.

[Alex]

I lol'd.

As for the red, we know it's rubbish really, but the beginners love it and it's as weatherproof as is possible to have a dh course. We only run it once a year in the end.

[Dangerous Dave]

Is this the red with the northshit diversion after the berm or full red all the way?

After what you rode in France on a ht red course will be smmooooth

[Tobs]

Lol, nah. Now he just compares everything to France... so all tracks in the UK are shit, bar 1 or 2. And ALL drops break your ankles! Haha

[alexhill]

Tbh, I don't have a hardtail to come up with anyway. AH WELL.

[Alex]

Is this the red with the northshit diversion after the berm or full red all the way?

Aw, I like the diversion but actually that would mean doing the drop. Should be fun!!!
