Been a bit of rain around dunedin the past week, however the forecast is fine for tomorrow so we should be on for a good race.
We will be running the following classes.
U17
U19
Open Men
Open Women
30+
Each will get two timed runs with the fastest of the two counting.
We also plan to run a 'top ten shootout' where the fastest ten riders across all clasess complete a third run battling it out for cash!
Thanks
