Tuesday 26 November - Dirt Crits Race 7

Dirt Crits Race 7 - Tuesday 26th November 2013

 

Junior Event

Thirteen juniors raced on another dusty afternoon. By the end of 4 laps six riders recorded new personal best times (PBs). In particular, Zali Vaivars improved on her previous PB by nearly three minutes! Great work Zali!

All riders performed will and their times have been very consistent, so congratulations to all!

The next race will be on Tuesday 3rd December- Registration 5:15pm and event start at 5:30pm.

Senior Event

On Tuesday 26th November the seventh event in the Dirt Crits Spring/Summer Series was held at Riflebutts Reserve.

As the course is drying out, some of the braking areas are turning into talcum powder, making them very slippery.

A couple of the riders have incidents- one over the handlebars and another into a tree!

I’m not sure what the handicapper was thinking, but there seemed to be a lot of riders that finished at vastly different times this week!

Thanks to Jodie Batchelor and Nick Howland for running the event this week.

Results-
1st April Lachal- 32:34 (4 laps)
2nd Flynn Bowker- 30:56 (4 laps)
3rd Rod Sargeant- 37:03 (3 laps)

The current points standing to date is-

1st place- April Lachal- 130 points
2nd place- Anthony Plummer- 125 points
3rd place- Mike Davies- 116 points

The second last race for this season will be held next Tuesday 3rd December- Registration 5:45pm and event start at 5:6:00pm (course 2).

Cam Lachal has some plans for the last race of the Spring Season, so it will be good to see this come together.

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.
