CORC announces that team entries for the 2010 Scott are now open and selling fast.

CORC’s Scott 24 Hours of Adrenalin Australian MTB Championships – 9 & 10 October, Stromlo Forest Park, Canberra.

Old Faithful. Now in it 13th year, CORC’s Scott Australian 24 Hour MTB Championships, the largest of its type in the world, has affiliated with 24 Hours of Adrenalin so the great fun and participation event that everyone loves is still the same, still at Stromlo.

A World First. In 2010, for the first time in its 12 year history, the 24 Hours of Adrenalin World Solo Championships is leaving North America. CORC will host the event and it’s Australia’s turn to show the world what 24 hour mountain biking is all about  - with a few world solo champions under our belts already, where else could it go? And it’s going to be BIG.   How BIG?   Already twice the size of the previous biggest world solo champs.   Come and see the best freaks race hard for 24 hours – cheer the Aussies – including the 2006 World Solo Champion Craig Gordon and the 2009 World Solo Champion Jason English, or show your support for one of the 14 of nationalities currently entered, including the current British, Argentinian, and New Zealand champions!

Two Races. The World Champs and the Scott are two separate races. They will use the same start/finish areas, but out on the mountain, it will be two separate courses. The open nature of Stromlo allows solo and team riders to see each other for a lot of each lap – double the action!

What to look forward to:

Number of entrants – course congestion
This year the Scott entries are capped at 450 team riders on-track, so that could mean between 1800 and 2500 team riders in total. This will provide a much less congested course than 2009, going back to the average rider track spacings of 2007 and 2008. Plenty of room to be able to dig in deep for a hot lap or trundle round as best you can.

Team marquees
Stay out of the cold and buy a fully fitted team marquee (6x6m) conveniently located at transition on the crit track. Comes with tables, chairs, power, lighting and gas heating. Check it out at www.scott24hr.com.au.

Expo Area
A great chance to check out all the latest bling, pick up a few bargains, or start on the Christmas shopping! The only area where trade is allowed at the Scott 24Hours of Adrenalin still has a few spots left, but is already looking like a great place to stock up on all those bike bits and pieces, as well as accessories.

Big screens & live results
Watch all the action from out on course on the big screens at transition and solo pit row. Get live results on big screens, access via PC at the event & online
