Developmental Race Series 2010

Hello..
in 2010 i will be running a 3 race developmental race series for youth, Ladies and Sports.
1 will take place in late February in the Coillte trail centre in Oughterard.
1 will be in Early march in Ballinastoe
1 will be in late march in Ballyhoura.
Simple, handy loops for non Snr Categories to have a go.
There will be a support race afterwards for Senior categorie ( all ages and cats together)
I am looking for local Clubs to Support me with the hosting.
I will do all the Organisation and the co ordination and manage the Series with the help of the offroad Commission.
I would like to get an overall sponsor. I've written letters and hopefully the replies will be positive.
if you would like to help out, please let me know. I'm doing this on behalf of the Offroad Commission, its not an EPIC series.
I will update you with progress as i go along.
I also need a website person to design and manage a website.
If you have any questions please let me know..and if you kind people could put this up on the Club websites I'd appreciate it.

I'm sure EPIC as a club will look after one, without you Richie. You are involved in the series, so I suggest the rest of us run the one in B'stoe. Obviously this is up to the committee to decide, but if they do, I will happily help. I can't see it taking too much effort out of our crack squad.
I agree, i'm sure we'll be fine as long as there are pints of the black stuff after and some spare ribs.
EPIC have enough to do next year and i have plans to involve new clubs and organisations that want to get involved. The Wheels are in motion, as they say,But i would be grateful of any help from all the Clubs.
Where's this trail centre in Ouchterard Richie?
Am heading up that way for the bank holiday and might bring up the bikes if it's any good.
I'm out of the country (racing) from the 18th of Feb to 8th of March, but outside of that - I'm here to help.

Not sure if this is the right tread for it, but wouldn't it be cool for the course length to be directed towards the sport level. Say, 3 (or 4?!?) laps of a 16-20 minute course. The type of course an elite would do in 12-13 minutes? This would give a person several opertunities to ride a section well.
Fantastic idea. I'd be happy to help out. I've done the trail in Derroura (outside Oughterard) a number of times and know the area reasonably well too. I might be able to rope in more help from some friends, all of us are based in Galway.
