There’s only 3 weeks to smackdown, how ninja are you? Have you been grooming your skills or stretching the silly season?
Entries are rolling in thick and fast so if you have a mate that’s looking to enter then they had better hurry.
The Track
The track maintenance we wanted to do is finished and it’s riding really well, there’s plenty of variety there for everyone. Kinross forest is open 24/7 so if you fancy a pedal then follow the link below for a map of the course.

Electronic Timing
Although this is a volunteer club run event we are trying to put on a professional show. We are lucky enough to be able to offer electronic timing, the RFID/Racetech system. You will receive your custom number plate at registration, the rego tent will be open from 5pm until 8pm on the Sat, taking entries for the Ferei Night Dash and signing on for the GN250. The rego tent will open at 7am Sunday morning and close at 9am.
Goodies/Competitor Pack
