Hi guys, I just wanted to bring this event to your attention, and would be stoked if you could all spread the word for a good cause!

James Williamson Enduro Challenge – 13 March 2011

Wingello State Forest, Southern Highlands NSW

The inaugural James Williamson Enduro Challenge is to be held in memory of James Williamson, the 2008 World and 2006 Australian MTB 24 Hour champion. James passed away on 23 March 2010 while he was participating in the Cape Epic Mountain Bike Race in South Africa.

The James Williamson Enduro Challenge is a joint initiative between the Southern Highlands Cycling Club and Canberra Off-Road Cyclists and is intended to be a ride for those who love mountain biking, and a race for those who love to ride hard.
Categories include:

· Open Male & Female - 75km, 50km & 25km
· Under 19 - 50km & 25km
· Under 17 - 25km & 13km
· Under 15 - 13km

Proceeds from this race will be used to finance a range of activities in support of developing young mountain bike riders in New South Wales and the ACT including an annual training camp, assistance packages and other forms of support to be determined by the administrators of the James Williamson Fund.

All registrations completed before December 1st, will receive a specially designed “Willo T-shirt” as part of their entry fee. Numbers will be limited to 600 riders, and registrations will cease after this number is reached.

Hey James
I think this is pretty well publicised. There's even a ride entry in the Calendar already for it http://nobmob.com/node/18470

I think it's going to be an awesome fun day out.

See you there
Phil
