THIS IS THE NEW CLUB SERIES

  • REMEMBER YOUR RACE PLATE FROM ROUND 1
  • Single day event
  • Use your head... if your time is constantly within 5% of the Elite winning time in the state series you probably dont fit in here
  • We will be reviewing entries and giving priority to new racers, or lower level racers

2022 CLUB SERIES R2 - EAGLE MTB PARK


This is a shuttled race.

Track = Overmixer (parts of overlooked and the mixer)

Eagle MTB Park is known for its gnarly trails, technical rock riding and epic DH races. For the club cup we have chosen two of the old favourites and modified them to suit beginner and intermediate level riders. All black level features are bypassed and all blue level features have a solid B-line (easy line) to ensure everyone can run a race to their abilities and confidence.

A track preview will be posted including all A and B line options. We are confident this will be a great race for all show that Eagle MTB Park is great for all riders, not just the elites.


RACE FEES


  • Regular Entry : $70 (Includes shuttles)
  • E-Bike: $50 (Min age 18, no shuttles)
  • E-Adaptive: $50 (Min age 18, no shuttles)

VOLUNTEER REGO



This year we are focusing on getting everyone to help out so please put up your hand to help setup, packup, drive buses, marshall, collect or return trailers etc. The list is endless and we need all the help we can get.

Volunteers are rewarded with a bunch of great things like early entries so you don't miss out on racing, t-shirts, club jerseys, shuttle days and more. Get in touch with us if you would like to help out.


CLOTHING AND EQUIPMENT



All registered racers must have the following:

  • Two working brakes
  • Bar plugs/ends on handlebars
  • Full-face helmet with a fixed non-detachable mouth-piece that satisfies the current Australian or equivalent international standards
  • A jersey or shirt covering the elbows
  • Knees must be covered by full length trousers and/or self-fastening knee or knee/shin guards expressly designed for off-road cycling
  • Fully enclosed shoes

  • Full-finger gloves

NOTE: The Race Director reserves the right to deem any participants clothing or equipment unsatisfactory. It is up to the participant to ensure they meet the above minimum requirements for the purpose in which they are intended.


CONCUSSION POLICY



We have a strict concussion policy which is simply "if in doubt, sit them out". If concussion is suspected, the rider will not be allowed back on track unless they have a letter from their doctor supporting their return to sport. Riders, mums and dads do not get a say in this decision.

Riders please take care of each other and if you see someone coming off heavily and landing on their head, either knocking themselves out or looking disorientated please take note of their number and chat to them to make sure they dont get back on the bike. Afterwards let someone know of their plate number (track marshals, photographers, caravan crew, transport crew etc)

Unacceptable Behaviour

  • Damaging another person’s property or depriving them of that property
  • Not stopping or slowing down when there is a clear issue on the track such as a downed rider to the side of the track
