Biking Blitz - Ballinastoe

So who's signed up? Long range forecast is good so hopefully we'll get a decent day! Be nice to see a good Epic crew out!
I reckon there'l be a big turn out for this... first race of the season... lots of "no havent been out much" comments followed by a stampede up the fireroad to the the first singletrack! looking forward to it...
Im not looking forward to that stampede up the fireroad but once thats out of the way ill be happy !
we had a bit more snow yesterday to add to the rest of it up there, it'll take a lot of thawing to get rid of the snow on the top section. Low psi and stabiliser ski's may be needed!
Was there Saturday morning and I couldn't pedal all the fire road to the first trail cos the snow. I was talking to Niall Davis about an hour and he said it's still bad. We get real snow up in the hills!!
Was talking to Niall today and its all systems go, its wet with a couple of trees down which he will be sorting out .Over 200 kids and adults signed up so it will be some stampede up that horrible hill and the wind will probably be against us!!
The charity spin was all systems go till the day before too! Still, loadsa days to go so hopefully it'll be fine.
