DUSK TO DAWN 12 HOUR
20TH February (POSTPONED)
Thank you for your entry in the Ay Up Dusk to Dawn 12 Hour Challenge.
I woke up this morning and it was bright sunshine but as I write this e-mail it is raining again.
You would of received an email from us advising of the change of date from the original (30TH January to 20th February) Now postponed to the 7th/8th August.
I should change my occupation from Sports Promoter to "RAIN MAKER".
As you have all seen my t.v. reports our area has received unprecedented rainfall. Tamborine received the most rainfall since 1888 over 400mls (16") in one night. Our venue is the bottom of tamborine and the hills you ride lead up to Mt Tamborine. We received over 360mls rain at our venue plus the water flowing down from the mountain. Such was the force that it moved our 20ft laiden shipping container & the bridges over our creek crossings. The camp area is water-logged at present. With more rain expected we will not be able to get the course ready for 2 weeks time to our high expectations to give you the best possible course and event.
We had everything ready to go,course was perfect, Ay Up Dusk to Dawn Travel Coffee Mugs for your freebie, trophies etc.
NEW DATE - 7TH/8TH AUGUST
In consultation with our Sponsors, suppliers and checking the riding calendar we have re-scheduled the Ay Up Dusk to Dawn 12 Hour to the 7th/8th August.

"GLASS HALF FULL"
Looking at it as "Glass Half Full" you now have more time to train and the event has only been postponed to a later date you still get to take part in it. There is nothing that can't be repaired with more work from us to get the course in perfect shape and we will still have a great events in the future.
We know you were all really keen and ready to ride and will be disappointed like us that we have had to postponed but we can all look towards the future!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
