Seems that there are TWO races now...
The Scott - at Stromlo, Oct 13/14
The MONT - at Majura, Oct 27/28
Obviously too much mountain biking is not enough!

Agreed - if you make it all the way through the first one, you'll
probably still be sore for the second!

I thought this was a reference to the Tour of Canberra (starting
today!). Anyone else coming? A huge turnout expected with over 600
riders. D-grade has something like 98 riders listed. That'll be hairy
coming into the river crossings!

Ha! I've been geocaching - man that is fun, especially on a MTB.
Two races brings up a number of issues I can see....
-firstly, expense - the Scott isn't cheap (not commenting on value) so
another race a couple of weeks after will tax the bank balance mightily
-volunteers....you need them to run both races...challenging
-how many people want two 24hr races in a couple of weeks - might be OK
if you choose the larger team options for them I guess
I dunno which to choose either. I absolutely love riding at Majura...it
rocks. Stromlo has little or no shade but looks like a great track.
Decisions, decisions!!!!
