Thanks for all the ideas guys and please keep 'em coming....

Just to comment on the 'Timed Practice Runs'...... It unfortunately wouldn't be possible......

To give you an idea - 1 timed practice run for 300 riders takes 3 Hours...... we just don't have enough hours in the day.

A chill zone would be cool. Some big lazzzy bean bags ( like the ones red bull have), will chilled out music, but with a view of the course............

A big screen showing peoples runs in the final half of the course.........

Free beer........

Split times.....

Big trade stall area......

we can all dream........

Free massages for riders ( Speak to the local college, there always looking for events to gain experience)

I think the chips that they use in the dragon series for timing are programmed for each rider,so when you pass the beam it knows wich rider it is.You wouldn't have to set off at intervals of 30 seconds..If you get my dift...

I think we are using Pearce Cycles Timing system, So it won't be possible.


Maybe next year??

It's abit of a pain to organise a one-off 4x event there, as it's a long drive for either of us, and I doubt we'd get great attendence to make it worth while.
