Information for Hope PMBA Enduro Series round 5.
Here is the rider and spectator information, we are aware there is a lot of information but please do not use this as an excuse for not reading it thoroughly, and knowing what you need to do and what rules to follow. More information will be added as we approach the event.
Danger ! Racing mountain bikes is a dangerous sport. You should assure you're familiar with the warning signs and a tracks should not be hit at race speed until you are comfortable with your ability on each stage.
As always we rely on volunteer marshals to make these events a success, if you know somebody who would be interested please ask them to e-mail mike@borderline-events.co.uk We still need more Marshals for this event, Saturday &/or Sunday.
We are now able to allow Go-Pros in race runs! But only mounted as per UCI rules, bike or peak, no helmet mounted cams or body mounted camera's
Youth Riders!
This year we started with a U15 category (Under 15 on 31st December 2017) but we updated this to U16 (Under 16 on 31st December 2017) before round 2. This is from rider numbers and feedback from entrants. Gisburn results were re-processed for the series standings, and added to the Lee Quarry results.
As organisers we have a duty of care to look after all our racers. Any racer that is under 16 years of age on the first day of the event must ride/race accompanied by an adult (Min age 18) support racer/rider. If the support rider does not wish to obtain an entry and race we will issue a blank board with ‘support rider’ and for this there is no charge – In this instance there will be no timings given and no transponder issued. The support rider/racer must accompany the youth rider for the duration of the event.
There are still entries available for this event and others within the Borderline Events on the SportIdent Website here (login required).
Litter :
Please be clean and dispose of litter correctly.
