Last year it took a week; this year Australia's biggest 24-hour mountain bike event has filled up in just five days and two hours. Entries opened for the Scott Australian 24hr mountain bike championships on June 15, and after some initial teething troubles with a rather heavily-loaded server, entries closed today with over 2700 places filled.
However, because the event also hosts the official Australian solo 24-hour national championship, for which men's and women's Australian champion jerseys are awarded, entries will remain open in the solo categories.
