Here are a few options for the mtb calender in April. Both are excelent events. Any body up for one of these or both?

If you know of another mtb event in the same month please post it on the thread. If you know one for May make a new topic for Mtb Events May 2013 etc.

I was talking to Jim about the MTB Challenge at the Christmas party - suggesting a return to the scene of his podium finish!
The two day would be good alright..

Early days Rudolf, but I reckon I'll definitely be on for the Enduro.
Not sure about Lough Derg, would like to as I've never done it before. Does a two day event get double club championship points?

[DavidF]

I'd like to give the Enduro a go too. Not sure about the two day, did it a few years ago a lot of road/fireroad. Maybe if there was a gang going down to stay? i've a big tent! and my feet don't smell!

@DC - no, as a matter of fact you would only get 5 points as its a one off

And this one. The Lough derg challenge is briljant. Unforunately i can tmake this. The stage racing is great and inbetween stages there is food and a nice relaxing cycle back to the start with great views along the way. So pick a day or better do both days.

The Gravity enduro is later that month. Carrick is a blast to ride with loads of deadly trails.

OK im signed up for the Gravity Enduro in Carrick. Been there once or twice on the bike. Some great trails and nice view over the Irish sea as well.

Who is joining me?

[BrianM]

I am signed up for NPS round one in Cong this weekend, staying in a local B&B, anyone else?

[Rudolf]

Hello Brian,

I dont think i can make this race. Looks like a good track but I am still taking it easy on the bike.

Best of luck Brian, hope the rain stays away

Hear, hear! Good luck, Brian. Looks like being a good race, enjoy it. Will be checking the results tomorrow.
