DDCX - Rules, Guidelines & FAQs

Many of your questions about grades, bikes, start times and entry processes can be found at these super informative links...

It's the prologue! It's short and fast and fun! Expect to race twice. Both times for about 10-15mins. Seems short? You know that's going to feel like an hour in the middle of it all!

GOOD TIMES! GREAT RACING!

RACE ENTRY PROCEDURE & SCRATCHING POLICY: Number pickup and on-the day entry (if available) closes 15mins before your race. Use the SCRATCH button on the race entry page to scratch!

RULES: Rules? we don't need no stinkin' rules... (but seriously... DBAD thats the most important and only DDCX rule)

Licencing: http://dirtydeedscx.blogspot.com.au/p/licensing.html

KIDS: Kids licences are free, and cover you for the race. Unfortunately you have to be under 11 to get one. Other kids (u13 - u19) are subject to a sliding scale based on age, but it's still way cheaper than for grownups. If you are entering children, please also read this - http://dirtydeedscx.blogspot.com.au/p/kids.html

WELL WORTH NOTING

Because of time constraints this we will be doing blended grades for this one (think fast C/slower B together etc). We also need to cater for the fast increasing women's race sizes. What does this mean? It means there may be a fair few people who get waitlisted, but end up racing after we sort out the heats. It's better this way than telling people they are entered and then the day before telling them they aren't! Remember this race is really focused on having as much fun as possible racing friends in short bursts in a small area!
