Hi Guys - only recently (3 months ago) converted to DH from XC and really caught the bug in Morzine in July. I have entered the Mynydd Ddu race well at least I have completed the form and sent the cheque. Do you get confirmation of your entry or anything like that as I can't see my name on the entry list?
Also i have a question on spares - I will be taking things like tubes, chain links, mech hanger, pads but would any of you seasoned riders recommend anything else or will there be enough trade stands there to supply stuff?
Another thing I am really nervous of making a tit of myself so what is the atmosphere like as I have ridden in Cwmcarn, Mt Ash and some of the people I have encountered seem less than friendly to newbies - does the event cater for the less advanced, recreational rider?
Any directions for Mynydd ddu?
Cheers
Chris

The atmosphere at Dragons is really great. No one is really bothered about winning, It's really one of those thing where it's taking part that counts. There really fun weekends!

Spares wise, I think you've got most things covered. Descent-World is at most of the races, They provide most parts.


Out of interest what bike will you be riding? It's hard to comment on spares for a specific bike. for all I know you maybe entering on a bmx?!
