A Day at the Races

In 2 Adventure / 25.09.2008

With Race HQ based at Cessnock Wine Country Race Course teams broke out of the starting gates and into more adventure in one day than most people experience in a lifetime. And amongst all the adventure Team Rank Outsiders at odds of 3:1 took out the Trifecta, taking out Line Honours, the Male Category and $450 cash from Teva, being the first team across the line wearing Teva Footwear!

Beautiful Werakata State Conservation Area, just south of Cessnock, played host to a day of adventure, mayhem and fun as teams lined up for round 5 of the Teva Adventure Series 2008. And after promises of bad weather, the sun rose above Cessnock Race Course to start the day off with a bang.

The Teva Adventure Series is an event with a difference. Participants only find out the exact race location 5 days before the event and the course is revealed just one hour before the start. Strategy and planning play a part in the outcome as well as a team’s physical fitness, mountain biking ability and navigational skills.

With basic navigation (if teams can read a street map, they usually have no problem navigating) and courses that provide alternative route options depending on your skills and abilities, The Teva Adventure Series is perfect for beginners to come along and try their hand at one of Australia’s fastest growing sports, while still keeping the more experienced and competitive teams competing right up until the final checkpoint.
