Event Report
In our first event of the 2015 off road season (MBO Score) there was clearly one winner – Mountain Biking! a big thankyou to all that turned out today to make it Phil & Phils best attended event to date.
The sun shone, the tracks were dry (no bike to clean, hurrah ) and many of you achieved the furthest distance to date for an off road 3 hour event, indeed some almost cleared or actually did clear the course, giving them a healthy boost in the National BMBO league. The overall results are available on both MidlandsMBO and BMBO websites with split times to follow, hopefully on monday.
It was great to see several newcomers and also returning riders who have been away from the sport for a while- most of you said you'd had a fantastic day and would be back for more- we hope to see you again soon.
Please do sign up to receive our newsletters on our website (MidlandsMBO) so that you can be kept up to date with upcoming events, or contact us with any feedback you may have.
Many stayed on after competing to exchange stories of what-if, or to discuss how you could improve next time- which makes the planning all the more worth while.
A big thank you to all who made donations today towards Air Ambulance when sampling the refreshments- which when combined with donations from the lanequest 3 wks ago stand at over 200 pounds from refreshments alone.
The total with proceeds from the event are over 460 pounds, which will be going to Derbys & Leics Air Ambulance.
