The sweetest Enduro bike race !

Angry Doctor 100 k's, The Irate Intern 50k's,
6 & 7 September 2008, Mogo, NSW South Coast

"With awesome single track, beautiful berms, rolling hills, exciting fire trails and right next to the beach for some post race surfing you will not want to miss this. As Hugh Flower from City Bike Depot said "This must be some of Australia's best, yet undiscovered mountain bike trails - you just can't get enough!". "

"Last year's inaugural event sold out. We have increased the numbers for this year but places won't last long with the reputation of the best single tracks around. This is the event not to miss!

The same course as 2007 but with some great improvements. The 6km loop at the 73km mark will be replaced by a combination of new single trails and fire roads. And you will get to the famous snake track - la Pièce de Résistance - a little earlier so you will have more energy to enjoy it!"

Course Breakdown

There is no fluffing it up. When we say single track it is single track - not narrow fire trail!! The breakdown below is from the 2007 event. There will be some changes for the 2008 course - for the better of course!

For the Irate Intern 50km you will ride: 14km of single track; 24km of double track and narrow fire trail; 9km of wide fire trail; 3km bitumen (a little at the start and a little at the finish).

For the Angry Doctor 100km you will ride: 34km of single track; 45km of double track and narrow fire trail; 17km of wide fire trail; 4km of bitumen.

It is all about the course
Last year it was super sweet. This year will be even sweeter. With still the great combination of single track (some of the best in Australia!), interesting and narrow fire trails and only a smidgen of bigger hard packed main fire trail, you will not be disappointed. The 6km loop at the 73km mark will be replaced by some new single track combinations. You will also hit the famous snake track a little earlier to give a little more energy to enjoy the superb experience.

The single track is spread throughout the course so it stays interesting and there are plenty of opportunities to pass. The terrain is varied with the course passing through pine forest, open farm land, native forest, granite rock formations and some great views. As single speeder Josh Beck said "Best single track this side of Rotarua"

Where?
Mogo, Eurobodalla Coast, NSW

On the Princes Highway 10km south of Batemans Bay and 15km north of Moruya is the small and groovy town of Mogo. And sitting right next to the coffee shops, ice cream parlours and fudge shops is a heaven for mountain bikers - the winding single trail and super fun fire trails of the Mogo State Forest.

Entries are open now!

They are like... round bits of metal.

Often with teeth (although sometimes not so toothy). Mostly connected to your crank arms (although sometimes not). Eye-wink

Does anyone know if we will be turning up to Mogo to just ride the race on the Sunday? Was there any thoughts to riding any other local trails? Maybe a fun ride somewhere? I was just wondering, as I will include for that in the work leave I will be taking. Eye-wink

Does anyone know or remember where the water stops are along the 100km course?

Alysum's picture

they had sweet buns, endura, lollies, bananas at all the stops there last year, I think there was 3 stops in the 100k race.

davis_jnr's picture

for this event, I just can't see myself doing any long distance riding in the next month at least due to unforeseen injury.

1 x 100km entry for transfer please contact me by PM on my profile.

I might still come down for the trip though.

lozza6's picture

about the back! Sad

Hope it gets better soon!

Greg P's picture

Anyone missed out getting a spot for the Doctor, I have an entry available due to another commitment. Please call on 0401 700 674

There's a possibillity that I may be a late starter for the Angry Doctor. I've read that the Irate Intern track is just the first 50km of the Doctor. With no training, is there a possibility that I could start the Doctor and if I feel like a wuss, pull out at the 50km mark?

BWOAR!

Steve 01's picture

Dog it at the 50km you just don't get an official time

Hey, great, looks like it will be dry Sticking out tongue

such luck hey! Laughing out loud

Carlgroover's picture

I just found out that we have a Gumnut cabin that sleeps 6 at Broulee beach where plenty of the NoBMoB are staying and only 4 of us in it, so if anyone still needs a spot PM me.
Cheers John.

Rob's picture

John - you might want to check the booking, our form clearly says 4 adults per unit only.

Carlgroover's picture

I'll ask the turkel that did the booking.

Have a great race, I'll be thinking of you while I (hopefully) inspect the Olympic XC course...

To all those that decided not to go to Mogo but are still showing as "in" on the original ride entry (on the first page),

PLEASE UPDATE IF YOU ARE OUT so there is a more accurate count.

At the moment is still shows 46 riders, despite several cancellations.

Please click the RED STOP SIGN IF YOU ARE OUT.

Thank you. Eye-wink
