PMBC Social Ride – Saturday 3 September

PMBC invite members and non-members to come out for a social ride at the Camel Farm. This is a good chance to meet other mountain bikers, ask any questions you might have about the club, MTB racing or being an active member of the MTB community, and have a blast with like minded people.

We’ll split into 3 groups as usual, with each group riding a different loop so that we are all back within 2 1/2 hours.

Those riders training for the Dwellingup 100 could do another loop afterwards with similar paced riders if they wished.

To register your interest email:  info@perthmtb.asn.au

Keep up to date on the PMBC forums.

 

 

 

 

Single Track Minds Enduro Series

3 Comments

Thats right guys MTB season is here & this sunday will be the 1st round of the Single Track Minds Enduro series. This is the 2nd year for this event and there was a huge turnout last year, especially from the SPR crew. Lets see if we can do it again and get outselves on the podium.

The race will be held at Jorgensen Park, Kalamunda (the old golf course). This is a great beginners course, nice and easy but still with a few options to keep the regulars on their toes. Racing is from 1000 – 1400, but the tent will be going up about 0800 or soon after. Entries close this Wednesday so get yourselves a move on and enter as a solo or team. If you don’t think your up for the racing side of things come along and support the riders who are. Drop a comment below if you think you’ll be there and we can organise drinks etc.
