Hello Dave,

Are you putting together a series this Winter?  As I know a fair few people who are wondering and dead keen. 

Cheers

I spoke to him on the phone a week or so ago and he told me that there will definately be a winter series this year. I know a lot of people are still waiting for him to officially confirm it before they get there hopes up though.

I agree. I was absolutely gutted when I heard it might not be running.

If Dave runs it I will do every round I possibly can!

I doubt it.

If I know Dave, you will get

Ashcombe (if it doesnt clash with the shooting again)
Avil Ball
Birds Hill
Combe Sydenham
Avil Ball

Or something very similar. This is a well proven format with great tracks that are long enough and challenging enough for the pro's and easy enough for the beginners.

When Dave says its on, I'm entering!

It would be a sell out..... Is it the only winter series in the country? Would be good to maybe have Expert/Elite cats too if the numbers are going to be up? I just hope it happens!!

its not the only winter series in the country what about SDAs, pearces and new this year will be Ukbikepark winter races- so plenty to choose from (oh and I also heard a rumour of another SW series as well) . we will endeavour to make sure that our dates dont clash though so if you are really keen you can ride them all!

Dave if you are reading this, get in touch would be good to know if you are planning some dates

i know you can enter online for the eng champs, but theres been no word about it other then people
voicing opinions - not that thats a bad thing...
