Well hello to members and guests.  2010 has seen a bit of a hiatus for the Bermagui Dirtsurfers and our race program.  This is due to a couple of reasons:

Forest NSW has highlighted a timetable with us for the logging operations of our track area.  Unfortunately they have not kept to this timetable and haven't even commenced operations.  We have been trying to obtain a time table from them but to date this has met with an information black hole.  Which then leads onto the next point.

Recently the Far South Coast was hit by devastating winds, these winds have caused a number of very large trees up and down the coast to be literally uprooted.  Unfortunately the Bermagui Dirtsurfers Mountain Bike Park was not left unscathed.  Our long bridge was destroyed by a falling tree, and a number of other large trees have come down at several points around the track.  Suffice to say there is a lot of work required to repair these issues.  So with this in mind and the pending logging the Dirtsurfers committee is at a bit of a quandary, repair the damage now and have the track logged straight after, or wait for the logging to occur and allow Forest NSW to remove the trees for us.

We are still searching for a Forest NSW representative who want to discuss the matter with us and when we find out and have a time frame we will let you all know,  then we intend to recommence our race program ASAP.

Also due to the problems we are having at the moment, all paid members for the year 2010 will have their club membership carried over for 2011.  2011 will see a full race season.

When we have all the timings we will be organising a working bee on the track, we would like to thank all the kind offers we have received so far and intend on taking you up on those offers.  So please keep an eye out on the website for the date.

Happy riding.
