From Everyone on the committee at Peel District Mountain Bike Club, we would just like to thank everyone today for their patience at the race and hope that everyone had good fun day of riding and racing.

Unfortunately a few things were out of our control leading into this race, ie, having a bigger shuttle bus like we usually would, our new timing gear not being delivered prior to the weekend, and also the club not used to experiencing such high numbers for a clubby left us all a little out on a wing with the admin side to the event, not to worry though, all these things will be rectified and in all place for the 2nd round of the Peel/SWMBC club series on the 16th of May. Keep your eye on www.pdmbc.com and huck to flat for updates.

Also welcome to all the new and returning members that joined up with the club today.

We as a committee are also very proud to be apart of a new club race record of race entrants today of 76.

Once again thank you all for patience today and we hope you enjoyed the event and look forward to seeing you at the next round.

Cheers Corey House
Peel District Mountain Bike Club
