What sort of people are you after ?
I'm kind-of interested, but
(a) never raced before, and
(b) don't own a mountain bike
Assuming I can negotiate my way around (b), what skill level are you looking for? - My usual riding
is a gentle tourng pace occasionally shouting at the kids to stop fighting in the bloody trailer.
How many vistalight night-sticks do you need for 24 hours ?!
How many laps do you reckon I'd make on one of those $99 bikes from Big-w ?
Actually, more seriously, what sort of mountain biking skills are required for this sort of thing? I
ride dirt roads occasionally, but that's VF-far from technical mountain biking skills.

There's nearly a kilometre of ~ 10% grade that's followed by some 400(?) metres of 20% singletrack
back downhill.
Should I be scared or excited?!
The last time I encountered a 20% grade, it took both of us to push the (touring loaded + trailer)
bike to the top of it.
Hmmm... what if it's muddy

My hand is raised. I'm not fast. With no team myself, I was considering a solo effort. I'm a
Canberra resident, 40 something, regular rider with good fitness and skills - but more inclined to
survival than racing.

If it's muddy we found out who can really ride and who are the pseudo racers who train on road
bikes.......
