MADAX Tracker

If you have entered or or planning to the MADAX is just over 3 weeks away now.
One of the major things when organising an event like this is to be able to track everyone and make sure all is well.

So for this year we will be requesting all our riders to download the Life360 app. Its aimed at families and friends but can basically be used to track anyone is a group you setup.

Rider will be required to have a fully charged phone with the app on it. You will then me sent a link to join the MADAX group. Once in you can not only be tracked but you can track everyone else in the event, so if you are riding with anyone and loose them you can easily see where they are (Hopefully not at the finish having a beer while you struggle on)

Important: This app dies if your phone goes off, so it maybe be a cool idea to have a power pack. These are getting popular now and cost around £20 ish. Most will charge a phone 4 or 5 times. Great thing to have if you want to keep things charged including your GPS device.

Entrie close on the 20th so not long to go. Please if you are planning to enter don’t leave it till the last minute.

Going Mad in 2019

So its not all bad news.

 

After much deliberation and the occasional beer or 3 we have decided to get back to what we do best and bring back our MAD Dash events for 2019. So XC is coming back.

We are currently in deep conversation with our venue owner to secure a long term plan for regular events.

When? we can hear your minds ticking… Well the safest bet is early 2019 but if we can sort anything sooner will be of curse post on here.

With regard this year, all we can say is its been a bit of a disappointment as we had high hopes for the MADAX format but with so many events on and a new format it appears it just wasn’t what you guys wanted.

So apologise to the guys who did enter, you should all have had refunds by now and roll on the future.

Keep an eye on our site and facebook page for updates.
