The Wallaby Rides Again!

Phin Wallaby

April 10 2011 Kempsey Golf Club 8.30am start

3 races in one.

3 classes

3 tracks

1 day

How does this work?

You pick what amount of laps you want to compete in for all 3 races (e.g. pick 1 lap per race will mean you do 3 laps in total), no changing mid event.
You pick your group Racer, Rider or Trail Bike (140mm travel min) with prizes for the winners of groups. After the first round any "Rider" (group) time better than 3rd place in the Racer class will be re classified as a Racer for the whole event.
There will be a 15min break (about half a lap) from the time the 5th placed 3 lap Racer finishes before the next race starts. Early you get in the more rest you get.

Example: I'm entering in 3 lap Racers class.

Entry fee $30 for 3 lappers $20 for 2 lappers $10 1 lappers.

Note: There is no age or gender catergories, if you don't think you can be in the front half of the lap catergory enter in the Riders group, prizes are still the same.

Online entries here

Late entries or entries on the day will incur an additional $10 fee unless otherwise arranged

LunarC 8hr

2011-02-07T09:02:00.001+11:00

Josh, Tim and Kylee headed to Murrenbong this weekend for the LunarC 8HR. Tim headed out as a solo of course and after a flat tyre from the year before's winner took the lead and extended it to almost a lap and a half lead by the 8hr mark! Josh and Nigel hit it out in the pairs division. The boys ran two laps at a time, holding 3rd position for 3 hours, the boys went lap for lap then, however as the night went on they lost their advantage taking up 5th position with only an hour to go! Nigel took on the track for his last lap and by the 8 hr mark josh had helped him to regain a position, finishing in 4th! All guys did an absolute corker of a job! Josh and Tim represented KMORC with flying colours! A huge thanks to Kylee for keeping Tim well fed and watered throughout the night!

How to prepare

FITNESS. Not all riding is big mountain but if you plan to ride daily start riding our trails daily to get some fitness & be able to enjoy the trails as you may be in the Redwoods forest for half a day each day which is fine for the first day but consecutive days can wear you down if not prepared.
BIKE. The lower half of the Redwoods forest is fine for any hard tail trail bike but the higher you go the more technical & exciting the rides get and a 125mm travel bike with good brakes & tyres will handle the conditions best. I was at home on my Reign X (160mm) with 2.35 tires.
CLOTHES. Riding the conditions can change quickly & you would want to allow for cool conditions to early to warm at lunch before getting cold by 3pm.
MONEY. You can access funds from many ATM's and this seems to offer you the best exchange rates but be prepared to have money NZ money on you before you land in Rotorua & try to keep a little cash on you when out & about.
PACKING. You can use bike boxes (from bike shop). Be aware you have upto 30kg of luggage allowance, which includes bike, riding gear, spares & personal items, go over this & you'll pay big!
TRANSFERS. Getting to Sydney it is best to drive, you can leave you car at the internation termials long term car park. Pre book to save money parking.sydneyairport.com.au. From Rotorua airport to the motel the Aplin will arrange a shuttle. its only a 10min drive.
NON RIDING ACTIVITIES, Rotorua is a town of similar size to Coffs Harbour, with 7 bike shops & all shopping requirements you need with the town prepared for international visitors. The home of geothermal hot springs with plenty of day spas, its also the Maori cultural centre of NZ so do some home work and prepare to do more than just ride.

North Coast Series Run & Won
Round 5 results here
The New England Mountain bike club hosted round 5 at the new Pine Forest Track, Armidale. We had 25 members in attendance & the weekend started on Saturday with a pre ride of the track before hitting the Armidale 4X track to see Josh, Dan & Tim see who could pull the best trick over the tabletop before heading to the RSL club for dinner.
Sunday woke up to a great day with the predicted cold quickly leaving to make a great days riding. The new track was great fun offering full tilt riding through the pine forest before climbing to the top & hitting the rock gardens on the way back.
