Canberra set to inflict some Capital Punishment

Media Release - AROC Sport / 24.05.2010

Around 2,000 riders will descend on Canberraâ€™s extensive system of off-road tracks and trails to compete in either the 50km or 100km enduro events, both of which kick off at 7.00am, Saturday morning.

Capital Punishment will link the best single tracks in Canberra including Kowen Forest, Majura Pines, Black Mountain and Mount Stromlo. This yearâ€™s event marks the first time such a fantastic course has been put together in the Territory. Despite being in just its first year, this is destined to be the largest mountain bike enduro in the country and the apex of Enduro MTB events.
