NPS Round 4: Lady Dixon


Round 4 takes place this weekend and we're hoping if the weather people have it correct, we're looking at another dry and sunny Lady Dixon race. Registration has opened hopefully we'll see a large squad of you up.

If anyone's into dirt jumping, why not check out the Mary Peter's Jump Park located right across the street from the NPS course. May aswell, while you're in the area.

Looking forward to this!

Mostly likely up and down in the one day? What is the drive around 2 hours?

Anyone there before what is the course like? climbs, technical etc...

Oh and who else is making the trip?
Yeap, around 2 hours or so drive:

Its all mostly flat with a few kickers, and it's a park so all mostly grassy track...

its one of the top events of the xc calendar IMO..
less than 2hr easy drive to the venue
always been great racing
Always a top class event up in lady Dixon,course loops through the start finish twice a lap so lots of cheering.no really long climbs but some nice steep short climbs and some of the best single track around out the back of the course it's a lot of the course is really open so you can see all your competitors all round the lap which makes for great racing.
If its dry were in for a treat
Thanks for that lad looking forward to Sunday going to head up in time to get a practice lap in before the race!! see you all there!

I have my fingers cross tightly for this! I was around on Monday night and its still pretty greasy in sections and its planned to rain tomorrow ffs. The course is quite similar to last years with some tight single track added and the kids won't have to do the ball-breaker climb back up to the field. However, the adults will have an extra climb to deal with

They'll take Euros John - imagine it will be €20 or €25!

Getting around won't be the problem ..... not being lapped by Mickky, Steve or Terry ..... now that's a problem!!
