Fat Tyre Flyers Downhill MTB

We would like to introduce the registration of teams into the next state series to spice things up a little, and to give you and your mates a chance to take something away from an event even if an individual has a bad day.

Josh Lansdown is looking after this so contact him or drop us a line here:

You dont have to be sponsored, you dont have to have the same shirts,bikes or anything - just 3 mates that you want to ride with as a team effort.

Register at the first race, and then we will do the rest for you. Your individual race points will count towards your teams effort. No changing teams half way through a season, and substitutes are only allowed if one of your team members is injured or breaks his bike during a registered series event.

No more than 2 team members are to come from the same category.

Also, no swapping between teams mid-season...if one of you gets injured during a race and cant ride, you can find a substitute who is not already a member of another team. But this must be cleared with registration first.

The points system is simple - all your normal individual points get transferred to your team points total..

There will be no adjustment of points based upon numbers of riders in a category.

We had 12 registered teams at Eildon, and the feedback was generally good. If the concept is successful at Long Gully we will continue to administer the series to include teams.

Mandy "Tandy" is going to administer the points for both individuals and teams...
