pcS learn to ride karingal the pro's way!
Thinking of doing a practice then if you are racing the KWT Maxxis SEQ MTB XC Series on the Sunday (or even if you're not), why not come and learn the race course and practice it the way the pros do it! Donna Dall and Jodie Willett will demonstrate and section the race track just as the Aussie team would at a World Cup. You will have plenty of time to get familiar with all the features and you will come away with more confidence for race day! We will do one slow lap, re-riding and practicing the more trickier sections of the course and then for those with enough energy to spare, can do a "hot" lap to bring it all together! Please HURRY as places are limited!
Time: Saturday 26th May from 2pm to 4.30pm!
Cost: $25.00 for MTBA members (or +$5 for non MTBA members for insurance purposes)
Venue: Karingal Scout Camp, Mt Cotton, Track Location Here
