Ride and Scrape

By Damian Grundy

Ride and Scrape Morning, Riflebutts MTB Park, Sunday 5 October, 10am to noon.

This Sunday 5 October as Daylight Saving begins, don't forget to Spring Forward and enjoy one hour less sleep 🙂

But do come on up to Riflebutts any time between 10am and 12 midday for a ride, and a trail scrape. We will do some trail repairs ready for next week…

Racing starts next week!

DIRT CRITS 2025 - 2026 SEASON

As per last season we will alternate XC and GRAVITY each week. Everything kicks off with an XC night on Tue 7 Oct at Riflebutts MTB park. 5.45pm race briefing for a 6pm start.

Tue 14 Oct will be the first Gravity night. Keep your eyes open for notification of the venue for this event. (Sign up for MMBCC News emails and join the club’s WhatsApp feed for the latest info.)

You can find all the details here on the Events Calendar. The first three weeks have already been published, the rest will be added shortly.

ROAD RACING STARTS NEXT WEEK TOO

So long as we get our permits (we’re looking at you AusCycling, Vic Roads) racing starts next Thursday 9 October with a Handicap Road Race on the Whitfield Road.

All the races have been published on the Events Calendar including the links to Entry Boss and the Duty Roster (available in one page here). Please check the duty roster to see when it’s your turn. There’s quite a few new names added to the roster for this season so it’s worth a look so you don’t miss your turn.

Just to let you know, the first race sees Dave Empey, Dave Moore and Cam Dobson on duty (although we know Dave Moore’s away so we’re already looking for a replacement) and the Commissaires are Tim Ross and Bruce Halket.

Club kit

The Ventou webshop for MMBCC kit is open until Sunday night. Here is the link.

If you’re interested, please email Bruce for the login code.

Still no word from John about replacing his old saggy, baggy knicks.
