Tue 6 September 2011
By popular demand we’ve added in these dates for some Twilight mountain bike racing at McLean’s Forest Park.
These will be individual races designed for all levels of mountain bikers.
We’ll have two start groups, START 1 – the majority of riders will be in this start group and you need to be comfortable with a mass start. START 2 – this group is for those who are maybe new to Twilight racing and not comfortable with a large mass start. Just give us a call or talk to one of us at rider registration if you are not sure which Start to be in.
It will be a loop course, starting and finishing in the large grass area in front of the carpark. The loop will be approx. 20km so will take riders between 40-70 minutes approx. depending on fitness and skill level.
Category for Tandems.
While it will be light when you register, you will need lights for out on the course.
This is a great chance to kick start your training for the summer, add variety in to your riding week or maybe you’d just like to try something new.
