2010 Irish NPS 1 Preview - Cahir


The track will be around 2 minutes long and will be a mix of familiar and new sections.

As usual with an 021 event we will have catering, live timing and uplifts.

Unfortunately there will be no RedBull girls, but a couple of the lads have promised to wear lycra at sign-on!
 

 

There will be toilet facilities available.

There will be full race support for both Fox (OCTuning - www.octuning.ie) and SRAM (Moycullen Bike Works - www.mbikeworks.ie)

Uplifts will be running on both the Saturday and Sunday. No race number = no uplift.
Riding the course without a number over the course of the event will jeopardise the event since you are not covered under the events insurance or medical support. 

021racing would like to remind all riders and spectators that the race is on Coillte land. Downhill relies heavily on the kind support of Coillte for race venues and it is important that the positive relationship that has been built up by 021racing is not jeopardised by leaving litter in the forest or causing tension with locals through inconsiderate behaviour. You are also reminded that mini bikes and the like are not permitted under any circumstances. Parking is also at a premium so please park your vehicles sensibly and allow local traffic easy access so that the event doesn’t unnecessarily attract the attention of the Gardai or cause issues for Coillte or local residents.

From Tipperary Town
As you approach Cahir, just before the new motorway flyover (overhead) take the right hand turn. Drive up the hill and past the houses and make a left turn at the next junction. Continue on past a number of other houses and go straight through the staggered crossroads and on to the parking area..

Parking
The larger car park area at the bottom of the track is restricted to campers and larger vans – please co-operate with the race organisers on this matter so larger vehicles are not parked on the road causing blockages. Please park your car along the side of the forest road just after the camper / van carpark.
