A NEW Tweed mountain bike club is looking for local riders to help trial a course planned to stage a race near Murwillumbah.
Tweed Valley Mountain Bike Riders will stage a race trial this Sunday at a Kynnumboon track.
“We’re looking for up to 30 riders to test the course, its signage and other aspects of a race we’re planning to hold at the venue,” club president Redmond Webster said.
“We’d like to have riders of all abilities at the trial, to make sure the course is suitable for less experienced riders but can also be a challenge for more advantaged competitors.
“Club members have been busy preparing a course which combined twisting and technical sections with fast and flowing portions of track.”
Sunday’s trial will begin at 9am and will be conducted over a cross country format.
“Participants will cover several laps of a 4km course, quicker riders are expected to complete up to six laps over about 90 minutes,” Redmond said.
