Entries close 2 weeks today! for round 1 of the MTB east League.
www.mtbeast.co.uk I have had a few questions about the pricing. If you enter the Series your MTB east membership is included, and you ride all 10 races for the price of 8 with the same number board. If you do the "Pick n Mix" option, then you need to buy MTB east membership just once for the season and then use the same board all season and just pick and choose the rounds you want to ride. I have looked at the pricing for other local and regional MTB races and MTB east and if you ride 3 or more races from the "Pick n Mix", we are cheaper (even with the League membership included) and much cheaper when entering the League. Expanding the League beyond Potash and including other clubs and organisers has led to additional setup and logistical cost, lack of power at venues, software costs, medical cover, setting up the Comms team, etc. Once the season is over I will see if the membership fee can be reduced further for 2026. The MTB east posters are up at Betteshanger Park to promote MTB east Round 3 - Betteshanger Kent and MTB east Round 8 - Betteshanger Kent, The idea is to bring back mountain bike racing to the venue and promote cycling in the area. Banners will also be going up soon. Support the MTB east league by buying a t-shirt. All those who have already bought one can pick them up at the first round they ride. I will also have extras for sale on the day, but I can't guarantee I will have all versions in every size. So, to avoid disappointment, you know what to do!  The U7, 9 and 12s finishers medals are back for 2025 MTB east League with a difference! With 10 rounds, its was tricky to make the original design work with enough slots for the tags without being massive. For anyone who hasn't ridden before all under 7, 9 and 12s get the base medal at the first round they ride (it will have a lanyard), you will also get a sticker for every round you ride. 1-10. Who is going to collect them all? The number boards have arrived! These will be yours to use across all 10 races. The tedious job of adding 2 RFID tags to all of them has begun! (no more helmet tags). You can enter the series at www.MTBeast.co.uk Myself and Kevin went to ride a East Kent CX race at Betteshanger, at the same time we went out and explored the trails, getting an ideas for the course for rounds 3 and 8 of the MTB east series. This video shows you what to expect from the trails, its really great, the facilities are amazing, I am surprised that I haven't raced here before! Thanks to Michael and Pete we cracked on with some trail maintenance and creating some new sections. These new berms will be included in the first round of the 2025 League |
