Ride the Bird in 2009!
Entries will open sometime in November.
We can't say which day just yet, but those who raced last year, and those who have been emailing me asking when entries will open (and yep, there's stacks of you...) will receive an email announcement a few days before the system goes live.
All I can say is it might be a real good idea to get your team together now, have your team's information ready to go and please note that payment guarantees your team a place at the Mont.
Cheers, and see you at the Mont.
Now go ride your bike.
Regards

Havnt seen much discussion on this since entries have opened? Whos in, we entered the other day. Were the Cinnamon Boys in the team of 6 cat.
It may be because i havnt had to enter a 24hr for a while, but do you guys agree its realy expensive? It ended up being something like $850 because it didnt except any of our MTBA licsense and from what I can tell, we didnt have any choice on the edtional $10 per person camping fee.

i think 120-140 a head is pretty standard for a 24. if your boys have mtba licenses they should be able to get their refund on the day so long as they roll up with their cards.
I'm in, team of 4. should be a nice, ragged taper before the solo nats at easter... assuming they're still on - haven't seen anything about them from corc yet... anyway, we have 2 experienced 24ers and 2 newbies (1 hasn't actually raced before, let alone ridden at night) so it should be interesting. i can see the 2 newbies going back to bed in the early hours of sunday leaving 2 of us to man the pumps...

In for a team of 4 - can't wait never ridden Sparrow Hill. Should be a bunch of fun.
No problem with the price or camping fee - is pretty standard.
Cha_Cha_ - solo nat's. Mate of mine has confirmed with CORC it is still on w/e after Mont 24. You going SS solo??
I'm thinking of doing 6+6 but was conditional on me getting a new Anthem X0 - but with all the price rises that aint gonna happen anytime soon
Don't fancy riding 12 hours at Majura on a HT.
So looks like I'll be support only.

I love Sparrows so really looking forward to this.
From some things I saw elsewhere today it may be one of the last times we get to enjoy the Sparrows complex for a while : (

The plans for the upgrade of the Kings Highway have the new road going right through it, and, yes, there are harvesting plans as well - but they don't appear to be being implemented on time.
But wait until you see the plans for the upgrade of Majura Road and see what that does to the tracks at Majura

Sparrow Hill I can handle, but Majura is another story. majura should be heritage listed, its like where mountain biking originated in Canberra. And with the exception of sutton road, they are the only old school tracks in canberra. does this not mean anything to the ACT gov!

But hey you can't fear change, perhaps we'll now get that 6ft kicker at the end of Bobsled
Having seen first hand thinning done at Majura and Tuggers many years ago, they pretty much destroy all the single track with the heavy machinery used in the process.

Sparrow
Oh dear this is really bad news. I have to do as much riding at Sparrow as possible before it is wounded.

Entries closing soon.
There is only a few weeks left before entries close and right now the entries are coming in pretty fast. We may fill up before the cut-off date of Sunday 22nd February 2009. Get your entries in now!
If you do miss a place to race in this years Mont, why not come down for a fun weekend anyway. Hang out or even help out, we'd be glad to see you there. There's going to be a pub band on Friday night to welcome riders, bike demos and a range of food vendors on hand so you can cater less and kick back more.
