Best slam Wayne (da bear) Humphries proving the value of helmets!

Good GS racing on a slippery road.
The local Councillor loved it, and wants us back next year, but we will have to wait 4 years for hot mix. Have made a good impression and established communications with council, so lets hope a few other roads will be closed just for downhill skating events.
Full write up and pic to follow.
Thanks everyone who helped and raced. Good job of representing ASRA!

Events like this sponsored by council etc usually have strict requirements regarding safety gear and parents/guardians because of insurance related hoo ha.  Best to bring full kit just in case.  If youre a grom hook up with a friends parent and see if they can take responsibility for you for the day.

no offence bernie too, but i think we can handle ourselves without wearing longsleeves and pants, also it will be 30+.

Course will need turns to control run-out speed.

Thinking turny trucks, or short boards.

what sort of course are we expecting? would one be wiser bringing his tight slalom board or his downhill rig?
