Source: Innerleithen MTB Club
Entries are now available for the 2010 Mini Downhill Series at Innerleithen which kicks things off this weekend (June 26-27th) at the now internationally renowned venue for riders aged sixteen and under.

Brought to you by the team who bought you the iXS Cup, this is a mini downhill race series for the Under 16s. Riders will push/ride their bikes up to the start, and timing is done manually with stopwatches. Riders have no stated start time, will line up when they get to the top and leave at 30 second intervals. As many runs as they have the energy for! This is a Go-Race, and a British Cycling license is not required.
Mackay's Furniture in Edinburgh have come on board to sponsor these events, and are helping to make it a good day out for all the family, with food stalls and entertainment for the younger kids, and a BBQ for everyone.
Coaching sessions are available from Scottish Cycling. To book your place contact David Winton. [email protected] or 07908673219

The overage bit isn't really the organisers fault. When I was signing on the kid above me was a few days younger than me but was in the category below me, which he shouldn't have been obviously.
