Hi all it's been a while since we had an official meeting and there is a few things to discuss

Meeting will be atthe Wang Bowlies

1. Joel Willis has made the Australian Junior DH team for selected world cups.
He did 2 world cups of his own bat with the team last year and this year has asked if we are able to do some fund raising to help him cover costs. Joel has been a club member since he was about 8 and has represented us at state and National DH races for many years, often racing up age groups and still stepping on the podium.

-33.4575905,150.0448114

OK Back in the day... well, just 4 years ago really, we use to run mini DH of a Tuesday afternoon before XC and I've been wanting to start that back up as it got both sides of the the club together for a bit of fun as well as offering a bit more of a regular thing for the DH riders and a good light option for beginners.

Trails like Acid Bomb and Fordy's were modified sections of the XC loop. They weren't that steep or Technical but were a bit of fun.
