Angry Doctor & Irate Intern 2008
Mogo, NSW South Coast
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!"
