Hi Anders!!

Next Round of 2003 SSSprint Gravity Championship - Sunday 19th October 2003 at Gurston Down.

We have had a storming season this summer - this being the 13th round of the 2003 race series! With so many people on the hill the racing has been hard and competitive - especially in the Standup series. We have seen new hill records set in both Gravity Bike and Standup this summer.

Furthermore - We have recently been given permission to use the track ALL YEAR ROUND. This landmark decision will enable us to continue to run the racing through the winter, into the new year!

Due to the short daylight hours in the winter, we now start the racing at 9:30am. Because of this the landowner has allowed us to camp out on the hill the night before, in order to make the early start for the racing. We had some ten riders camping last weekend - it was quite a party (from what I can remember!).

Well, the next race is on the 19th October - if you want to enter, contact either myself or Ding.

See you on the hill!

Tom.
