Event Description

found a sweet bike path, very grom friendly hill, 2 man heats. What more can i say? Should be a fun day. Will get the rest of the crew to help out with track marshaling and general radness.

THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A BEGINNERS RACE.

If your a grom in the sydney (or greater sydney) area and what a good introduction to racing and mellow downhill this is the day for you! Speeds would struggle to break 50km/h, the hill is a pretty straight bike path with slight bends and a full mellow run-out.

I am trying to make it work with school holidays, if the date is no good for kids going back to school let me know.

Meeting place will be at the end of Small St at the round-a-bout at the end of the road, next to Bicentennial Reserve under the over-pass. If you use Google maps you will find it.

THIS IS A FREE EVENT! yeeewww! so grommets all you need money for is a bus/train ticket to get your asses there. Will have some rad giveaways and prizes and what not (dont expect too much) but there will be some cool stuff.

Cheers to all those who turned up dispite the weather being so shitty. Either way it was a fun day and it was really good to see some new faces. Kam and i were supprised to see so many people handling business in the wet and slippery conditions and getting 'er done solid. Well done to all those who raced today and i hope you guys had a great time and learnt a few things.

Arvin, Kam and myself had a fun time getting it organised for you guys and we hope there will be more in the future.
