Its all about the money

There is lots of cold hard cash up for grabs this weekend, and its not just for the fastest riders!

Avanti Conveyors have again put up a £500 pro prize purse for the fastest lads down the hill.

With 70 lasses racing on saturday 60 Sticks are also offering a £500 purse for the fastest three from any category.

With the addition of a speed trap this year Totally Sports Insurance have put up £100 cash for the fastest lad and lass on the day. The exact position will be decided on friday but you’d best be ready to get your pedal on.

If you’re not the fastest rider on the hill, do not worry,  Totally Sports Insurance have thought about you too. At the top of the track is the Jolley Gap Jump named after the marshal, Rob Jolley, who whips the crowd up in to a frenzy each year. He will be judging which racer manages to elicit the biggest cheer from the crowd as they send the gap. Its a hard job and he takes it very seriously…. please do not try and bribe him… Ladies!

In all seriousness, this race is all about raising as much money as we can to improve the trails in Greno Woods. So please dig deep in your pockets and buy as much merchandise as you can afford.
