It doesn't matter where you're from to enter the Open Dutch Dirt championships that are on the calendar for Sunday 13 June 2010. It's an open event for everyone who wants to ride a dirt comp. If you're used to ride one of the jams in the South, prepare for something different. We won't be giving out prizes to random tricks done on the course, this is serious shit. Registration, practice times, judges, single runs, MC, are you getting nervous yet? The top three will be receiving a huge prize package donated by the sponsors of the event but you will have to go out and show what you've got this time.
The Helm Trails have received some new dirt and the locals and friends are working hard on the makeover. It's looking good already. Practice for the event will be possible on a daily basis from 17:00hr - 19:00hr. leading up to the comp so get your tricks dialled before it's time for your run. On the day itself, practice is possible from Noon - 14:15hr. The championships kick off at 14:30hr. We're also throwing in a long distance competition this time. You will have to get those leg muscles spinning to reach the longest distance possible over a little kicker jump with a flat landing. This should get interesting.
Now where is this place? TomTom owners, type in Helmond, Netherlands. Street: Johannes Vermeerlaan. The trails are underneath the cycling bridge in Helmond Noord. Next to the new canal. Follow the signs if you have a hard time finding it, or better, print a routeplanner now and don't get lost.
