Dirt Crits Race 6 - Tuesday 19th November 2013
Memberships
Katie Bowker is looking after the memberships for the Dirt Crits this season. Katie has had a chance to gather all of the membership information together over the last few weeks and is currently compiling a list of current members. Katie spoke to a few of the riders at tonight’s Dirt Crits and asked them about the status of their membership.
It is important that all riders are insured at each Dirt Crits event by the MMBCC in the following ways- ‘Come and Try It’ statues, Day license or Full Membership.
If you are not currently a Mountain Bike Australia member, please join up this week, or you will be required to pay the $20 Day license fee each week.

Dirt Crits Race 5- 12th November 2013
Junior Event
Although the wet weather caused the cancelation of the seniors on Nov 12th, the juniors still arrived keen to race, so race they did in the wet conditions. Their times were considerably slower but there was no dust to contend with.
Dirt Crits Race 6- 19th November 2013
Junior Event
Nov 19th saw a much warmer and dustier night resulting in a number of crashes. A number of riders finished covered in dust from one or more falls, but no one was hurt and the usual smiles were on show at the end of the four laps.
All riders are riding faster than the first week, with some showing lots of improvements.
Charlie Hutchinson is commended on his great sportsmanship by stopping and helping another rider with their chain.
The next race will be on Tuesday 26th November- Registration 5:15pm and event start at 5:30pm.

Senior Event
The sixth event of the Dirt Crits Spring/Summer series was held at Riflebutts Reserve MTB Park on Tuesday 19th November. Although the temperature downtown was quite hot, it seemed much cooler than that at Riflebutts.
This week, thirteen riders participated in the senior event on Course 3.
Thanks to David Bock and Aaron Sargeant for running the event.
Trevor Arnold was able to bring along some more bunting to help mark the course- Thanks Trev!
Nick Watson won the event- well done Nick! After the second win in a row, Nick can guarantee that the handicapper will be looking carefully at his lap times in preparation for next week’s race!
Results-
1st Nick Watson- 23:36 (2 laps)
2nd Josh Payne- 25:25 (3 laps)
3rd Mike Davies- 33:20 (4 laps)
