Little experiment, we are still having the odd issue with adults getting in the way of riders in the U7 category, I have considered a number of options but I think the best solution is an adult cut-through. This will be from the top to the bottom of the hill (adults miss out the downhill section). Adults can help going up but then cut through off the track to catch up with their rider at the bottom of the hill. This should stop any rider/parent interaction on the faster sections of the course. I am not going to make it compulsory for adults to take the cut-through as I realise some younger/less confident riders might need help on the way down but please adults if you do continue down, can you be extra careful of riders on the course.

Round 6 Race day timings. I have added 5 minutes between each of the U7/9/12 races, so hopefully we can get them away on time and not have a knock-on effect during the day. The prize presentation for the U7/9/12 is at 10:30, this is to allow us time to work out the overall standing and allow Youth/Juv and adult riders to get a lap in and still see the prize presentation. Youth, Juvenile and Adult prize presentation will be around 15:45 or as close to the end of the final L2/Fun race as we can once we have worked out all the results.  We have made the results for round 5 final and updated the series standing. Don't forget it's your best 5 of 6 results, so if you have had a bad round due to illness or mechanical you can drop that and leap up the standings with a good result at round 6. Link to Series Standing  Thanks to our amazing sponsor MT ZOOM Racing we have lots of prizes for the final round raffle, for those who have not ridden before, you put your helmet tag into the bucket and its drawn out at random. Anyone who riders, marshals or helps will be entered. This is just a small selection of items, they have sent. There are also vouchers for £100, 75, 50 and 25. So if you don't see something you want here you can choose from their site. https://mtzoom.com/ The series trophies have arrived, thanks to Hadleigh MTB Club who have sponsored them. With just 2 rounds left in the series are you still in with a shout for the top 3? Don't forget if you have a bad round due to illness or mechanical or miss a round only your best 5 of 6 races count.
