Entry date set for Mont 24 hour

Entries for the Mont Australian 24 Hour Mountain Bike Championships, the largest 24 hour mountain bike race in the world, will open online at 8am on Thursday June 15 2006

Held on October 7-8 in Canberra's Kowen Forest, the Mont 24 Hour and Australian Solo 24 Hour Mountain Bike Championships have 2750 spots up for grabs, and to avoid disappointment organisers are encouraging riders to enter early. The event sold out four months prior to last year’s race and 850 riders missed out.

With fields boasting some of the best mountain bikers from Australia and overseas, keen interest in the event is guaranteed, and the weekend remains a highlight of the Australian mountain bike calendar.
