Hey Guys,
Just letting you know about the Biking Blitz mountain bike series which starts shortly. The aim of the series is to promote cycling around the country, more specifically youth mountain biking. Posters have gone around to many schools, shops and clubs and we hope to really get some momentum going for the event. Youths enter free, senior riders pay €20 and Biking.ie will cover ALL one day licence fees. So no hidden fee on race day.
There are two senior categories as well which are expected to attract big numbers. There are no "sports", "elites" or "expert" categories to confuse things. Instead we are running a Baggy Shorts fun category or a Super Pro category for people looking for about 2 hours biking (or 1hr 30mins is your super quick!). The main aim is to provide a good challenge and good craic.
Wicklow Blitz, Sunday 6th February- Ballinastoe more>>>
Limerick Blitz, Sunday 20th February- Ballyhoura more>>>
Galway Blitz, Sunday 13th March- Derroura more>>>
We have over €3000 worth of prizes lined up from Green Oil, Columbia Sportswear, Trek, The Cycle Inn, Rothar cycles and MBW. How amazing is that- thanks for the support guys. There will also be medals for podium finishers too.
If you could spread the word that would be great.
See you on the hill,
Niall
