Cyclocross Racing, Supercross Cup

Peterx

Sold out!

All 75 available places for Round 1 are taken.

Dublin CX is back this Saturday on a new course and it should be fast, furious, muddy close racing and whatever cliche you're having yourself!

edit : I was wrong, there are more than 75 places available it seems.

Good to hear, looking forward to it, but a bit nervous about my debut race. Will be quite strange racing at my workplace.

Some places available. Sign on quick though, Cat 1 (A) is almost full and Cat 2 (B) is filling up fast!!

Rutrider

Sign on is closed forever for the first round at 18:00 Friday. No more names taken after that. No registration on the day.

Sign-on number collection open from 10.30-12.00 only on the saturday. No exceptions.

Spectators need to get their names on the car parking list. Refer to the website for details.

Cracking race, weather, organisation and most importantly racing. The ageless Robin Seymour took the plaudits yet again in the A race and the B race looked to have equally close racing.
More girls/ladies required though! Only one in each race. Handy money:D

I believe our own Diarmuid won the B Race.

Quick report from the race: http://ryansherlock.blogspot.com/2011/10/2011-supercross-cup-round-1.html

The official report is misleading (I was never more than a couple of seconds off Robin) - but really happy to see a report and pics up quick.

Fantastic course & super well run. Possibly the best CX course I have ridden...

I'm still very happy with my trophy even though I had no competition.

Diarmuid

Very well run event. Enjoyed the racing, well, as much as you can enjoy 53 minutes of pain. Thanks to the guys for putting it on! A race for me next time

Special mention to Darragh for having the skill to cycle up the muddy run-up. It was very impressive. Anyone get a video of it?

Another cool race today although the puncture ratio shot up there as unfortunately the hawthorns were out in force on the course.
Apart from the puncture risk it was a good tight hard lap, great for spectators and supporters. 3 hard climbs, plenty of tech twistiness and generally all good.
Robin Seymour again showed a clean pair of heels to the field with Ryan Sherlock and his very glued this week tubs similarly well clear in second.
Great racing, well done to all in Swords.
Susie Mitchell, more known for adventure racing, went very well to take the win.

Savage course, loved it.

Seymour was awesome today, even when he had the win wrapped up with two laps to go he continued to stretch out his lead by going flat out
