    Really looking forward to watching this. Live close enough to walk up so bringing (dragging) the family along.

    I'm bound to be making lots of noise (huffing and puffing and cries of 'Kill me now' count as noise, right?)

    Course is well mucky.Some puddles up to my axles earlier.Bike fairly covered in grass with a couple of minutes riding earlier.Will be even worse when chewed up by a few riders. Traction uphill non existent.Looking good for a tough race.
    .

    Folks, I hope nobody has been riding the course without prior approval from Fingal County Council :eek:

    Is this start list final? I entered on the 30th December and received a verification email from paypal letting me know that my payment went through, but my name is not on the list. Can any of the organisers shed some light on what the reason might be for this?

    John, I answered your phone call 5 minutes before you posted this and said I'd get back to you, which I will.

    For anybody else who has a problem with their entry, Boards.ie is not the place to be asking organisers to get in touch, we can't spend our day following boards looking for such issues.

    You will have received an email after you registered containing the PayPal payment link, you can reply to that email to get in contact.

    Thanks Glenn

    Looking forward to getting this issue resolved.

    cheers

    I have to say fair play to the swords crew for putting this on - i was talking to glennamaddy a couple of times in relation to my mess up with licences and he was very helpful.

    jawlor - hopefully you will get sorted. I would imagine we are in the same race. We can get that Eamonnator fella and push him into a bush or the river or something :)

    I take my hat off to any club who take on organising a race as prestigious at the National Champs. Myself and Eamonn organised a few of the Downhill champs back in the day so we know how stressful it can be.

    My entry still isn't confirmed yet so I may be shouting at the pair of you from the sidelines on Sunday.

    see you then
    John

    Hi GlennaMadda,

    Have a read of the title of this thread, "2015 Irish CX Champs. All you need to know."

    Why is this not the place for people with problems to go to?
    Jawlor needed to know something, so he asked.

    It's a thread title. Best to directly contact people, which he did.

    Because this is boards and boards is not organising or running the race!

    And with respect, this is Boards, not the organising committee. Information has been provided here, but it is in no way "official" as Boards would not permit anything like that


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,561 ✭✭✭Eamonnator


    Hopefully, all will be sorted.
    On another note, I bought some studs today, I have about 8 spare. If anybody needs some, let me know.

    Hate to be a dick about this. but the last sentence in the first post of this thread, posted by Caroline.ie, says "any question, let me know"

    Why are you harping on about this? It's another persons issue and they ain't going on about it. Way to make your name to stick out for Sunday!

    I understand that there is no list for the support race and I should not worry as long as I got the original confirmation email ?

    There is a section in the link provided above - "Support race" - I have a suspicion that you are on the list;)

    Any riders using a go-pro for the race?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,520 ✭✭✭Alek

    Thanks! I couldn't see it on my mobile, now it is fine when I check on the PC.
