It was a good day for photography on Sunday, and already two exhaustive photo albums have been shared. Thanks to Tim Klein and P’an-tau Jiricek-Scott, we have two more photo albums linked from the AMBC Photos page.

General club news
Based on the weather forecast for this week (an estimated 30-50mm of rain starting Thursday and continuing til Saturday) and information received about the current state of the trails at Fox Creek, AMBC has taken the difficult decision to cancel the Hammer Nutrition 8 Hour Enduro event which was to have taken place there on 23 June 2012.
It is not a decision we take lightly, but the potential for extensive damage to the trail network over the course of an 8hour enduro in wet and muddy conditions is too great.
Bikes also take a battering during muddy races, and we are aware that not everyone has access to unlimited parts for repairs.
Watch this space for a possible reschedule of the event, but given that the XCO series commences on 22 July 2012 at Eagle MTB Park and the fact that we do not want to have to cancel it again, it may not be until later in the year.
Those who have entered already will receive a full refund.

AMBC clothing
Dean Gibson has been feverishly working away designing some great and pretty stylish club clothing. The manufacturer is none other than Champion Systems, and most of you who have bought their gear will agree that the quality is good and the prices even better.
There’s a catch! We would like to know how many are interested in buying kit for the first round of purchase and what products. Please send an email to merchandise@ambc.asn.au by 14 June 2012, letting us know sizes and products to help us place the initial order. It will be a bit of a wait (4-5 weeks) after we put in the order, and this timeframe may also change, but we will keep you posted.
Huge thanks to Dean Gibson for his efforts designing the products and negotiating with Champion Systems!
Here are some shots of the nearly final design for the jersey and knicks.
