Kowen DH results
Sunday, August 15, 2010

A bit cold and wet in the forest but everyone had a good time.

The sun shone through on occasions and no one got too wet.

As usual a big thank to to all those who helped out. the events are running more like a swiss watch than a DH race these days.

 

Congratulations to Ben for taking out the event. And a big thanks to Kye for letting me beat him.

Isaacs DH Results
Sunday, July 18, 2010

A great day spent in the sunshine eating sausages and chilling out.

Thanks to all those who helped out on the day, marshals, cooks, timers, starters and of course Eddy, whose job is just to hang out and look good.

And a special thanks to the people who built the track. It must have been really hard to find all those rocks and place them so acurately on the track.

See you all at the next race.
