Preview: Spring Series 5, 19 April Tunnel Hill
by Jon Lucas, 14 Apr 09.
We hope you had an eggcellent Easter weekend and are ready to ride off that chocolate as the Final Round of our XC Spring Series headline sponsored by Saddle Skedaddle is this Sunday 19 April at TUNNEL HILL, Pirbright, Mytchett, Hants. (Our apologies, not Ash Ranges as advertised because the ongoing Army manoeuvres taking place there have run on, and we don't want you dodging bullets).
The course has been redesigned from February, and has some awesome new sections for you to enjoy. We've already had a huge pre-entry , so expect some great racing with many Series positions still up for grabs. There'll be prizes from your local mountain bike shops presented throughout the day, plus a chance to win a fantastic mountain bike holiday (for which ALL entered riders over 18 are eligible) in our rider prize draw. Pre-entry closure has been extended to WEDNESDAY night due to the Bank Holiday (please bring your receipt with you to the race), but entries will, as always, be available on the day. We look forward to seeing you there for the grand finale, and don't forget it's a good time to chat to your mates and sort out your pairs or teams for our 12:12 weekend enduro on August Bank Holiday!
As always, please check the website for any final information.
