St Ives Showground Dirt Crits this Wednesday

[VincentVolvo]

From 5pm, the races are on again. Daylight saving will be over soon and you will regret not making the effort to get out and thrash yourself and your bike. This is an exciting race format regardless of whether you participate or spectate.

Look for cyclocross man (Duncan) and also bearded singlespeeder (Liam), yell encouragment as they round up fast looking xc boys in A grade, they are under way at about 6:30pm. These images are from race 1, we had not opened up the bottom section at that time...

got back a short while ago from the track. it is all streamered and ready to go! and for tomorrow it will be new and improved. if you liked it last week then i think you'll love this new track!

this time i've linked all three of the mini wheels tracks. it's pretty much the same course as last week, with the third track linked in by a sweet section of single track. a big bonus is the mini bikes were out on the weekend and the track is now way smoother. i reckon it's about 1.3 km now and there are better passing opportunities and almost all the nasty ruts are gone. no puddles any more either. i hope you like it. any suggestions or comments are always welcome.

directions. it's on mona vale road between st ives and forest way. directions to the track will be sign-posted from the entrance. but basically the opposite end of the showground to entrance.

racing starts with the kids race at 5 pm. we'll be sliding races earlier if we can as the days get shorter. 16 kilo class is about 5.45 pm, c grade about 6.10, b grade 6.40 and a grade about 7 pm.
