Gutted. I loved dragons and have some great memories from them.  :'( I certainly hope there are some DH races in S.Wales next year. Hopefully Dragons will return one day!

gonna be a hard hit to anyone in the real south, nearest BC carrying races are gonna be another 2-3 hours away, i for sure wont be racing any for a few years again.

I know, we're in Southampton and focussed on the Dragons this year mainly because they were the closest series to us that gave BC points! I wanted to do Pearce and Caersws next year anyway on top of the Dragons but now it looks like I'll have to do them instead of! Damn.

Poor Jase, all that effort and now this. It's rubbish.

might see if my dad will drive me to UK bike park next season though, its a shame though cos I love the dragon tracks and they are all local to me :|

It didnt sound good when he was talking up at inners but it was going to happen in the end FC are wankers really i say well done to him shame though and it sounds like cearsws cups may be gone might as well sell up than spend £70 on NPS's

Who fancies forming a club then?

Sounds like a possible solution, perhaps what Jason is alluding to is that a seperate club deals with the FC or any of the other land owners.  Then perhaps we can subcontract Jason, to arrange uplifts, timing etc.

Perhaps the races might have to change to private venues rather than FC.  Anyone got any ideas.

If we formed a club, 'South Wales DH', with some like minded people who are willing to give up a bit of their time, this could easily be made to work?

Sorry, didn't see this.  Thread on WDA, Welsh Downhill Assosciation:

I am actually lost for words...oh well FC can complain when i go shuttle the s**t out of their beloved forest now. my loss and your loss. You just know the guy J deals with is some idiot sat behind a desk with the mountain bike knowlege of a fried egg.
