Australian national MTB series in Kooralbyn

Mountain bikers from around Australia will converge on Kooralbyn, Queensland this weekend to contest the fourth and fifth rounds of the National Series. Saturday will see the Olympic Cross Country being held, which marks round five of the National Cross Country Series. On Sunday, top world ranked downhillers will begin their qualifying rounds at 12:00 for the fourth round of the National Downhill Series.

Gold Coast downhiller Nathan Rennie, currently ranked fourth in the World, will strive to maintain his lead of 65 points. Rennie, who recently lost his mother, was keen to dedicate his last win in Canberra to her memory. At only 23, Rennie has been dominant in the sport of downhill since becoming a World Junior Champion in 1999.
