Transmission TT - MTB at Hamsterley 27th Jan

Post by Ian S »

Hi Folks,

Warm up act for the 2013 Gravity Enduro Series, Northern Downhill will be hosting a mini enduro at Hamsterley.

Enter here: https://www.britishcycling.org.uk/event ... smition-TT

I think there are three of us from Clifton so far. Post if you're going and we can look at lift sharing and the like....

Unfortunately when I entered I just got an update email from the organiser saying the event was full and I'm on the reserve list but if the weather continues like this the event will be postponed.

EVENT POSTPONED

Post by Ian S »

Hi Folks,

The Transmission TT Race this weekend has been postponed due to the weather.

The race has been rescheduled for 17 Feb.

Please pass this about to make sure all the Clifton riders are aware.

On a positive note, this will allow the organiser to get a few more entries in due to more daylight.

Cheers

On a selfish note the date change means I can enter :)

Just a quick note for those competing at the weekend;

Northern downhill are asking riders to use full face helmets as 'a must'. Thought I'd better point this out as I didn't realise, and don't want anybody from Clifton turning up without a full face lid as it will mean no race.

Cheers

Yeah I'm really excited for it, I nearly had a heart attack when I saw how expensive those leatt braces are! Won't be investing in one of those unless I buy a downhill bike in the future :lol:
