What a pity

This would have been so good for the sport in Ireland, they had long enough to sort it out.

Did the xc race this year on the proposed site.the acces was poor and the race track was not weather proof. they where never going to get the infrastucture sorted without a lot of money. there is no money left well not for mtb anyway. they should be thinking to organized these events on sites that are more suiteble and have already a infrastructue in place.the wicklow dublin mountains is much better suited for both events. was realy looking forward to seeing the mtb circus land in ireland and see some savage racing.

The XC was still able to go ahead, it was the DH track they hadn't got sorted, still not even started, if a lad with a shovel and a bit of time can build an NPS track on his own with no money then i'm sure a shower of gentlemen with a few diggers can sort one out, they have had 2 years.
