Teams Race 90% Full!
Sunday, August 22, 2010
We have over 370 teams entered for the Scott 24 Hours of Adrenalin Australian 24 Hour MTB Championships. This means the race is nearly full, so if you are waiting to enter, you need to get in fast.
The 24 Hours of Adrenalin World Solos 24 Hour MTB Championships is now full, with over 400 riders entered. We believe this makes it the largest solo 24 hour event ever.
It is going to be huge!
World Solo Presentation Dinner
Monday, August 16, 2010
A gentle reminder about this dinner ...
The prizes and presentations for the World Solo 24Hr Champs are done at a presentation dinner on the Sunday evening - not at the race. This is a big difference for Australians (although it is of long standing at the world solo champs).
Lots of overseas riders have been getting their tickets for the dinner, but proportionally fewer Aussies. This may be because it is something different to the norm. You should read the sections on the event website about Differences For Aussie Riders and Receiving Prizes.
The presentation dinner is from 1830 to 2330 on Sunday 10 October at the Crowne Plaza, with the formal prize presentations starting at 1930, in accordance with the Schedule.
The cost of the dinner is $30 per person and tickets can be purchased here. It is easier if the riders purchase multiple tickets under their own name for their group, but individuals can also purchase tickets, as can other people from the teams race and the general public.
Crowne rooms filling fast
Wednesday, August 11, 2010
Crowne Plaza Canberra is offering a discounted room rate to riders, for rooms booked between 4 and 12 October. To access this rate, go here.
This offer has been very popular and Crowne has been progressively adding more rooms at this discount rate. If you have any difficulties making a booking, please contact Neil Ellis at neil.ellis (at) ihg.com and tell him you are attending the race. Discount rooms are currently still available but if you are looking for accommodation at the event hotel, we recommend you book soon.
