DH Categories

Hello and welcome to the 2007 WA DH season!

We are stoked to hear that a lot of people are starting to become interested in racing, and that the regulars are still just as passionate.
Our new website will allow us to post a lot more information about upcoming races, events and generally how the whole season works. For those who are looking to start racing this season, please do not hesitate to put up posts with any questions you might have.

A few Questions we have had lately relate to which category to race in. The breakdown of categories is as follows:

Men's Classes:
U13 *
U15*
U17*
U19*
Hardtail#
Sport - entry level class
Veteran's - Over 30's Class. Don't be fooled this is one of the toughest classes around!
Master's - Over 40's
Expert
Elite

Women's Classes:
Junior Women - Up to U19
Sport women
Veteran Women
Elite Women

*For these Junior classes you cannot be turning that age this year and race in the UNDER category, ie if you are turning 15 this year you need to race UNDER 17s, so you will be in that age group for two seasons.

#Hardtail is any MTB without rear suspension, however for U13 and U15's with HT bikes you would probably be better off racing in your age division, as otherwise you will be racing against adults.
