Following the success of our Mountain Bike races last December, we’re hosting the first round of the Irish Mountain Bike cross country series next Saturday at Whitespots Country Park (aka the Lead Mines). Organisers Glen Curry and Chris White have put together some challenging courses, and there will be racing for all categories – from the Under 6s at 10am through to the top Senior and Junior races at 2pm. There’s a full time table here, and you can enter here.
If you’re not planning to take part, we still love to see you on the day – either to help with sign-on, marshalling, or judging, or just to provide some encouragement to the racers. Let Chris White know if you can help out, so that he can plan the day.
And a little bit of trivia to finish with – Scott are sponsoring this year’s series. Scott also sponsored the Ards CC Mountain Bike squad back in 1990, including our very own Glen Curry. Great to see them still involved.
The forecast looks good, so hope to see lots of you there next Saturday!
