Si, keep me posted on whether there's room in the minibus / van, my house is literally 2 minutes off the m6 on your way up

29 January, 2010 22:39

Yeah like I told you on facetube I'm up for it. Sport XC :)

29 January, 2010 23:59

Sport XC please, with uplifts for the dh on the Sat if possible, as new bike can take a bit of a pounding.

30 January, 2010 00:54

I'm in......DH and maybe XC sport if I'm feeling sassy.

30 January, 2010 11:12

DH & XC sport please (torn between using my 24" or my Commencal for the latter)

30 January, 2010 12:26

xc champs - although I'll be in Istanbul the weeks before hand so cant see myself being too fit. Will be fun though.

If anyones wondering about the difference between the 'sport' and 'champs' race, the difference is that the latter has more laps. So don't be put off, if you want a longer race do the champs. The courses will be the same.

30 January, 2010 14:10

DH please
will there be one or two training days before hand?

30 January, 2010 18:11

Francis, roughly how long are the sport/champs races in miles/km?

31 January, 2010 01:43

knut: training weekend 2 weeks before hand (provisional dates)

31 January, 2010 16:46

DH please :)

31 January, 2010 18:03

Count me in for the DH as well as the XC sports!

01 February, 2010 12:58

Adam

01 February, 2010 16:32

I'm keen for the DH i think but have no form to fill in.

01 February, 2010 17:13

I may be up for doing the XC champs, looked up the course seems extreme! Hills everywhere!

01 February, 2010 17:14

By the way i think we are limmited to 4 places for the XC champs race.

02 February, 2010 09:34

Dh please

02 February, 2010 12:29

Dh please

Alejandro, to quote from one of the extreme medics (the organisers):

"The laps are about 6KM, Sport is usually 2 for men, 1 for women, Champs up to 6 for men (Depends on lap times which are weather dependent etc) as race has to be approx 2 hours long and 3-4 for Women."

Also, yes, I believe we are limited to 4 XC champ spaces.

02 February, 2010 16:53

Considering the sport is really short, if there is a spare place for the XC champs then count me in for that instead of the sport.

02 February, 2010 17:43

Thanks for that Andy. The sport is indeed pretty short, but I'm not aiming super high for my first time racing...

02 February, 2010 20:42

You can ride the other days by the way, the xc loop will be open for practice.

03 February, 2010 12:54

the form says at the bottom please include a cheque and at the top pay at registration in cash...?
if i have to include a cheque, can i instead include cash because i don´t have cheques....?
cheers, knut

03 February, 2010 16:08

18 February, 2010 21:09

When's the closing date for entries? I might be up for this, but I might still be battering my head against the brick wall of my thesis. (XC sport, I ain't racing no champs)

Is the still a place left in the xc champs? If so i would like to take part.

02 March, 2010 07:42

Go on then, i'll turn up seeing as you asked nicely. Will get a form in this evening, hopefully. Still to the pigeon hole, or is there somewhere more convenient between town and beeston- can deliver to whoever would have to pick it up if that helps?

02 March, 2010 12:53

I can't make it.

So far xc champs...

Are we gonna be leaving on Friday for this or Saturday morning like for the training trip?

12 March, 2010 20:45

friday bloody early

15 March, 2010 19:26

I may not be able to take part in this. Basically, since last weekend's training trip, both my ankles have swollen up as if I've twisted them, and not even the physio can figure out why. It may be due to the fact that after Llandegla both my feet were frozen to the point of numbness, though I dunno if that's possible. I'm gonna see if they can recover for the most part this week but if not then I'll send a text to one of you and let you know before Friday.

16 March, 2010 10:40

If not man just come along and take photos, have a general laugh

16 March, 2010 19:15

I second that, I took photos last year and it was still banter.

17 March, 2010 10:36

Have we sorted the BBQ, Tents, Food now.

I have a tent suitable for 5 maybe at a squeeze, well maybe more at a squeeze. DO we have the marquee. Also does anyone have a stereo they can bring allong/ microwave and i will bring up my generator so we can party through.
