SUMMER SERIES 2018

GOLDEN BAY MOUNTAIN BIKE CLUB

SUMMER SERIES 2018 – 2018

Get those pedals turning because for the first time the club is holding a ‘Summer Series’ of cross country races.

This will consist of four races open to all current financial members of GBMBC only….Yes, no whippets from Nelson invited!!

No time for thinking about doing it…just start training!! The first round will be held on Tuesday the 18th of December!

The competition is a four race format with points awarded for your place in each race. (Up to tenth place) IE: 1st place = 10points, 2nd = 9, 3rd = 8, 4th = 7…..all the way down to 10th = 1.

The person who accumulates the most points by the end of the series wins. (You don’t necessarily have to compete in all four races to win or get a place…if you’re really good!)
