On July 24th and 25th, Flow Racing are proud to bring you the 7th round of the 2010 Irish Downhill National Points Series, to be held in the Carrick in Co. Wicklow.

I will be racing but just wondering if anyone else would like to give this a go? It's a great track and loads of fun and can easily be done on a hardtail ( just be a bit rougher :D ), and remeber, there are chicken runs around everything.
If your interested then give ma a shout, we can take a trip up and take a look.

Here's the preview

I've never actually ridden a DH track successfully so don't think I'm ready for racing - yet! Would fancy a trip up there sometime to try it out though. Any one else? Barry, what about you. DH on a hardtail in your MX gear?

Brakes schmakes - Use your head to stop yourself like you usually do! I'll suggest Weds night for this, what do people think?

Also, if this is going to be DH night are we to wear radical awesome DH gear? Do we go flat pedals and 5-10s? Should we bring bottles of beer and open them with our teeth? Teach us Gary, teach us.
