Don't forget our last meeting for the year, the Christmas Special Club Day on
the 18th December. The Presidents' Challenge will
be held again this year. The Presidents' Challenge
is a one or two (or however many he feels like on the day) lap push-bike race
around the track. It is open to all ages and I'm sure he'll find some appropriate
prizes for various age-groups. So be sure to bring your bike! You will need
shoes, full body cover, gloves and a helmet to enter.Your kart gear will do,
but I can tell you from experience it gets pretty hot in a race suit! The NWKC
Club Day final points are now here.
