A Boxing Day BnC Event! – Grass Track Dual Slalom!!

December 23rd, 2009

Last year(?) we had a BnC ‘Silo Run’ that morphed into a kind-of ‘Grass Track Dual Slalom/4X-ish’ event in the Pirate Ship Park, Battery Point. T’was a great day, we drank beer, listened to tunes, swapped bikes and threw ourselves down the Park’s steep grassy slope on a sunny Saturday arvo.. sounds like fun eh? Well, to finish painting the picture here is a link to the original post event post:

A few of the BnC heads are keen to revisit that afternoon, so over a ‘few’ beers at the AGM it was decided that this Boxing Day arvo fitted the bill and yes folks, the second annual Pirate Ship Park Grass Track Dual Slalom event is on!

Want the wood on this event? Yep.. Any type of bike will work and (ahem) ‘racing’ will be tailored to all levels of skill and (lack of) fitness etc, etc. Time? Meet at the ‘Pirate Ship’ at 2:00pm, 26 December. BYO beer, stubby cooler, esky, bike etc.. We’ll try and roust up a stezza and some tunes. Afterwards we may or may not go and eat at the Vietnamese Kitchen and have a flatland/trials comp. Come along! You know it’ll be fun!
