Shiiiit, World Cup this weekend! I thought it was next weekend. Lost track of time.
Anyone get a time in?
Not The World Cup Cup - Queenstown
It's not a race, it's an opportunity to compare times and see the difference between people. We're not in the World Cup and neither are you..
The best damn mountain bike series of it's kind... in Queenstown... at this time of year... doing exactly this kind of thing. So, what's the story? This...
Format:
One race per World Cup Round. Starts 14th April 2017 for first round. Times are received during the period between WC rounds only. The tracks aren’t released until the next round of the WC, so it’s a bit of a secret. Announced at Bikea

So there seems to be enough interest, let's get it going.
Round 1 map as shown, Salmon Run via Beeched As, start and finish at Bikeaholic.
Submit a time before the 21st April.
Salmon Run has had a fair bit of action and is tough in a few places now so take it easy.
Rules?
Not many; ride the loop, time yourself, indulge in something tasty along the way (we recommend chocolate milk and a snickers).
5 min bonus for hardtail, 5 min bonus for night ride, 5 min bonus for v brakes, 10 min bonus for fully rigid. All bonuses are add, you could score a 25 min bonus total.
No ebikes.
Post your photo at the best view for kudos points.
Record your time at Bikeaholic.
Suggestions for trails for next rounds welcome.
Get into it,

About a month and a half until the first race of the season...
Anyone keen to have a reason to ride all winter?
Same low key idea as last year. Less rules, less fuss, similar trails.
Bloody good excuse to get out for a ride over winter.
What do you reckon?

New trails for racing don't just happen. Get out there and help build some legit trail.
Wednesday Dig Night.
5:50pm at Skyline base building.
This could be the best dig night of the year! More new trail. More sweet terrain.
Get a free uplift with Skyline Queenstown. Leaving the base at 5:50pm. If you're late, you'll miss last lift.
Bring your bike, bring some gloves.
We've got tools and beers for after.
Tell your mates, tell you bro's and cuzzies.
See you there.... YEOW!

Last chance to get your name on this board for the season.
Get out there, it's a short course. Get busy.
Holy Crap! The season is coming to an end!
This weekend!
You'd better get out there and have a go otherwise you'll miss it.
You'll be the one saying "yeah, that looked cool, but I never got around to it, I just sat on my couch and ate chips"
Team slow set a record snail pace on Sunday of 2hrs 4 mins! Incredible.
How do they achieve such tortoise like pace? Dedication to the art of the chat, a drive train that hasn't seen maintenance in 2 years and backing up off a big Saturday.
Does it matter? Hell no.

Updated with times adjusted. It'll be great up there today! Slip slop slap.

Maaaate, how long does it take to draw a map and post it?
'kn ages...
Here is the descent map.
The climb is pretty obvious because you go up Hammies until the top, then keep going up until you reach the top parapont take off.
You might have to get inventive getting up to the parapont take off, walk a few bits, we don't really know what they are up to with earthworks up there at the moment. It's a bloody good place for a choccy milk though!
Righto, get into it. This weekend, on your new bike, if you've got one.

What's this? Winners cups!
One for Allan for his win in the last round and one for Erin for her win earlier in the season (we forgot to get hers done, sh*te race directors eh)
Pick 'em up at Bikeaholic kids.
Have we forgotten anyone else?
