T-SHIRTS and POSTERS
If you have pre-ordered a T-Shirt or poster, you can collect these from Race Rego. There will be a number of shirts and posters available for sale also.
ENJOY THE MONT
We wish you all a very enjoyable Mont. Please keep the rubber side down, enjoy these great trails and in the interests of safety remember that while pine might be a softwood, it certainly doesn't feel like it when you hit one. Have a great time.
BRING OUT YOUR PEDALS
We've got a burning need for your dead or dying SPD pedals. The first 10 pairs to arrive at Race Rego will earn the owners a gift for their effort. It will all make sense during the presentations.
STAY IN THE LOOP

MORE HELPERS NEEDED FOR THE RACE CREW
We would really appreciate some more volunteers for Friday & Saturday marshalling duties, so please become part of the Mont 24 Hour Race Crew. It is a great way to experience the event and a fun way to support your mates or loved ones while they wear their 'race face'. If you have a few hours spare, we have the right job for you. There's a wide range of things to help out with like rego, timing, marshalling etc. and we'll look after you too. You'll even scoop a limited edition shirt, hat and a nice feed to boot. Register HERE If you can assist on Thursday afternoon or even early Monday, we won't say no to that either.
Sure there's a race on but we also know that teams racing also allows for plenty of time to check out what's hot at Race HQ. SRAM and JETBLACK will have plenty of the latest high end gear on display. Inspect JAYCO caravans on display, improve your street appeal with T-shirts from Apres Velo, and increase your energy levels with fantastic products from GU and WINNERS.
Did someone say bikes? There will also be a grand selection of demo and display bikes at the Mont. Which brands? Well GT, PIVOT, IBIS, NINER, GIANT, SANTA CRUZ, CANNONDALE, TREK and MERIDA will all be there. Make time to try out a few bikes on our demo track or on course. Your best chance to try out some new toys.
