mtb racing 2012 and Munster xc League
Posted: Wed Dec 14, 2011 7:50 pm
I've been studying the mtb calendar to see what I'm going to do next year, racing wise.
The NPS is a bit weird - there's only one round in Leinster, two in Munster and two in the north. The first round is up in the air as EPIC have been refused a permit. As a series it doesn't appeal to me - the Leinster round is in Bellurgan Park - Dundalk,not one of my favourite venues, the Munster rounds are in Carrigaline and Killarney and the North is the North. So none of the NPS races are exactly accessible. The National Champs are also in d'North.
So what to do? I see that the Munster clubs are putting on a 5 round league starting in late January. Apart from a round in Killarney they look do-able in 2hrs-ish. And in places I haven't been before. So I think I will give them a go.
But of course there's no fun going on your own....Anyone?
