Eelmine aasta sai seal käidud ja siis oli võistluskeskus Ogre lähedal vanas karjääris.
Korraldajate sõnul on sellel aastal trass 25% ulatuses uus (varem ring ca. 9 km nüüd tulemas vist 14 km ring) ning võistluskeskus uus - siis järelikult toimumiskoht kuskil seal lähedal ?!
Eelmine aasta olid Porter Racing (24 h) ja Haanja Rattaklubi (12 h) oma mansadega esindatud!
Oli mõnus võistlus - tasub proovida!

Kaua tippisin - Lätist tuli vastus kiiremini

Comment about licenses.
You do not need any license to take part in 24h MTB race. You can participate it, you will get your result, you can (if you can ) win the race.
Licenses are required only for Latvian racers who take part in national championship.

Some news and comments:

First of all i would like to inform, that we have extended the term of reduced entry fee from 31. jul to 14. aug.
New closing date for applications will be 20. aug.
We already have two Estonian teams, i would like to encourage others too to take this challenge.
Solo and Pair class will be good for more experienced riders, but in Fours we expect riders who want to take a look, what it's like to participate 24h race and have a good time in great race atmosphere.
There will be coach - relations officer, who will be in charge to keep neighbor country's racers informed about their results, race news, etc.

I have to apologize about mistake in regulations.

In regulations (wrong):
Only those bicycles with wheel diameter not exceeding 26 inches will be admitted to the race.

Must be (correct):
Only those bicycles with wheel diameter not exceeding 29 inches will be admitted to the race.
