The Rider Info Pack and Final Race Details

Hello Rider,

This e-mail contains the final information for each of you before this Thursdays big race.  The trails at Anglesea could not be more perfect for us.  Hardpack tacky sandy loam for almost the entire 7.9km loop.  And on most of the way there is not so much as a leaf on the trail.  This years race course will favour the skilful smooth rider with about 80% of the track being flowing single trail. I could go on, but here are the details.
