It's on again the best action sports and music festival this side of the big bang.

April 27-29th

This year we partnering up with Rocky Trail Entertainment to bring you 3 days of the best fun you'll have with your clothes on*

The Short course DH is back at the same track with some added features, including a turboed up start ramp, and better access to the bottom.

Trials and Dual Slalom both make a come back to.

Festival pass for entrants is back so if you want to give it a go but haven't to all the DH kit have a crack at the slalom, you'll love it.

We'll also need volunteers so if you are free and willing to help out don't hesitate to drop me a line.

Thats a shame... Sad

Maybe, but not when you consider the rest of what you get at Newtons.

Ask anyone who has been to the previous ones. First year we just did Slalom and had 70 riders and remember it's more than just a race your entry gets you a festival pass to view all the other sports and the music. Smiling

Yep, it is a shame, because the 4X state champs are on the same weekend at Ebeneezer. So it's one or the other, and Ebeneezer 4X is the gun!
