MOUNTAIN BIKES: ON YA BOYS
Hunter riders Trenton Day and Cameron
Ivory have been selected for the Australian
junior men’s cross country team to
compete at the 2010 UCI (Union Cycliste
Internationale) mountain bike and trials
world championships in Canada. The
championships will be held between August
31 to September 5 and will commemorate 20
years of international mountain biking.
The next build day for the XC trail is set down for the 5th of September
*****EDIT*****
In light of the clash with Fathers Day, builders will be on site from 0630 until 10am (I will stay back longer) so that people can finish in time for family commitments.
*****END EDIT*****
Feel free to still arrive at 7:30am at the main car park, or make your way to the build site later (New section begins at the bottom of Little Falcon Rd)
Saturday the 18th of september will see the introduction of a HMBA night race as a charity fund raiser.
Race start will be at 6pm with registration opening at 5pm.
Cost: Adults: $15 Children: $10 (all entry fees will go to charity)
Expect a shortened version of the yellow course with a few surprises to keep things interesting.
Hi all,
I know there’s a lot of racing & events still to go in 2010 but we need to discuss some news for 2011.
MTBA regulations state that by January 2011, all club racing must be overseen by an accredited commissaire. In practical terms this means that we are looking for volunteers to do the commissaries course (online component plus a practical assessment) between now and the end of the year.
Club Racing
Club Races are held once a month, except the month of December.
There have been fee changes for the 2010 season to the club membership. This is to enable first aid and toilets to be provided at club events.
Club Memberships are $30.
MTBA memberships are $90 for a 12 month license.
