Capital Punishment

Diane Chanut - AROC Sport / 08.01.2009

Capital Punishment is the new 100km MTB enduro event to take place in Canberra on Saturday 30 May 2009!

By now, all mountain bikers in the country would have heard of - or ridden for the lucky ones - Mt Stromlo, host of the 2008 UCI World Cup and the 2009 UCI World Championships! Chances are Majura Pines also rings a bell as the headquarters for the Mont 24Hour MTB event. Finally, Canberrean riders at least would know of these other local gems that are Sparrow Hill and Bruce Ridge...

Up to now though, riders pretty much had to choose which one of these awesome tracks they were going to ride whether when visiting Canberra or heading out of their front door. Well, Mountain Bikers all over Australia rejoice, because this excruciatingly painful choice has just been resolved! Just in time for the New Year, AROC Sport announces the launch of a killer of an event: Capital Punishment on Saturday 30 May 2009.
