Booking for next years races

The mountain commission are looking for volenteers to test out their new booking form for next years mountain bike events. Here's what Fergal had to say

The Offroad Commission need your help in testing our new online event registration utility. We are looking to use this system in 2010 for as many offroad events (NPS, Nationals etc) as appropriate, the system can be used for registering XC, CX, 4X, DH etc... Test forms have been created for all 4 disciplines so you may register for as many as you like. The system is ready for testing now and will be taking test registrations for the next week or two. Below is the link to the main form from which you can pick your event to register for:

Offroad event selector form

The event forms request basic info, like Name, Email, Licence number (if you have one), Category, Event from the user. You will receive a confirmation email to your inbox from offroadevent.reg@gmail.com when you have registered for an event. If you notice any errors or have any suggestions please email offroad.commission@gmail.com. We'll let you know how the testing goes, we expect there should not be any major issues with the system, but we would like a signifiant amount of users to create a few registrations to ensure all goes smoothly.

It only takes about 30 seconds to register for an event, if you can register for more than 1 discipline or event then
that would help even more.

So log in and give it a try!

Christmas is Coming

Well Christmas is coming up fast and another year has flown by. There aren't many shopping days left and even fewer biking days before Christmas. Looking back over the year there has been some great progress in the Irish mountain bike scene. The new mountain bike commission is doing a great job behind the scenes and we should all do everything we can to support them. We've never been so lucky as to have access to so many great venues for races before and long may it continue. Speaking of races the 2010 calander looks packed with rumours of a 4X series too!
