"Knighter aims to become the first GBXC champion!"

"With less than a calendar month to go before the 3rd round of the
inaugural GBXC (Great Britain Cross Country) Series the organisers
have released some pre event information.

The Worlds number 1 off road racer David Knight will be aiming to tie
up the title of the best XC racer in Britain as he will be looking
for maximum points to make him impossible to catch. Remember the
series is 3 to count from 4 and DK will not be at the final round of
GBXC due to commitments in the US GNCC series in which he is also
leading.
The GBXC series has been nothing short of stunning really in what it
has achieved in just 2 rounds so far.

Apart from the superb SKY SPORTS TV coverage and the professional way
in which the series has been delivered to the public, the awesome
venues and the phenomenal rider support ( the series is a who's who
of the off road names in GB! in all classes!) it is the fact that
riders now have a true national championship and high profile race
series to participate in.

The atmosphere at the events has taken racers and families alike by
storm, with a relaxed and friendly feeling to the whole paddock and
camping scene, the riders and spectators also have the added bonus of
running race commentary and up to the minute results breakdowns with
riders news and interviews, these facts along with TV coverage (
shown in 9 million homes in UK alone!) show yet again why GBXC is
raising the profile of the sport of XC racing in the UK to such high
standards.

The current point's standings have been announced with this press
release and will be on the GBXC website as you read this.
The website is due for a re launch and will become a state of the art
place to visit in the very near future with helmet cam views of the
circuits and a regular rider interview and profile section.

THE NEXT ROUND……Sunday 13th July 2008 @ BERWYN LESUIRE PARK, nr
Oswestry….. LL20 7LH
The circuit for the 3rd round will again be a very special affair
with a true XC off road loop planned for the lucky riders.
8.5 miles per lap is the distance of the track with around 20 minutes
ride time for the fast guys!! This equates to a superb varied circuit
that has literally EVERYTHING that an off road venue should have.
Set in one of the most beautiful places in the whole of the UK, the
track offers, Open fast moor land linking to gravel farm tracks,
single track, tight and technical woodlands that meander through over
1000 acres of prime welsh mountainside to make up the majority of the
going and a superb manmade MX circuit will also be included in the
loop along with some interesting hill climbs and descents, add in the
customary Welsh Bogs and we really do have a treat of a track in
store.

The camping and paddock/pit areas are perfect with flat fields and
easy access for the riders and teams.
Entries are simply flooding in for this championship and with less
than 28 days to go it is very important that any perspective riders
get themselves booked in ASAP.
IF THE LAST ROUND WAS ANYTHING TO GO BY THEN IT WILL BE FULL!

Entering online at www.gbxc.co.uk is the simplest and best way to
secure your place and as always there is a class for every rider and
ability.
01543 370 070 is the number to call to physically speak to the events
secretary.

The organisers are working closely with the SKY SPORTS TV team to
ensure even better rider coverage and programme exposure for the next
round and some pretty "Brolly Dolly's" will be on hand to make the
podium a special place to be…………

dependent on how many international World Championship regulars we
get. They will be accepted in this order (British Enduro Championship
standard in the last 3 years) Championship class, Expert Class, Top
10 overall in British Clubman Championship. Obviously there will be
riders who do not fall into any of these categories but believe they
warrant an entry, maybe top trials or MX riders, exceptional cases

results/experience etc. Please note you will need either a full or
one event FIM licence, details of this can be obtained from Mary Kerr
