Press Release: 2015 Nomad Sunshine Series Round 6

Race entries close Friday (28/8) for the 6th and final round of the 2015 Nomad Sunshine Series! Get your entries in by 9pm or you can enter on the day with the addition of a small fee!

Before I jump into the details, I would like to thank a few people. First and foremost the team from Nomad Mediterranean Bread, as the Naming Rights sponsor for 2015 Nomad have been tremendous partners. In addition to their sponsorship they have provided over 1,000 turkish rolls in 2015.

The KWT team came on board late in the piece for 2015. Through their brands Maxxis, Joes No Flats and Dakine they have provided prizes for every category for every round. At times my house has resembled a warehouse and through each round we have given away 100's of prizes ranging from Maxxis tyres and tubes, to Joes No Flats sealant and lube.

Now it is our turn to support these companies that support our racing. Get down to your local Woolworths/Coles for Nomad turkish bread or your local bike shop to purchase your Maxxis tyres and support these great companies.

Whilst we are talking local bike shops and services. Cyclinic have been our suspension partners for a number of years now. A local team that provides service to people from across the country what they dont know about forks and shocks hasnt been invented yet. Thanks again for your support in 2015.

In addition to Cyclinic, the local bike shops of Ashgrove Cycles, Kenmore Cycles, Planet Cycles and Taylor Cycles have all contributed in 2015. So if you are looking for your Maxxis products these shops all play their part in support your riding this year.

The other pit-row partner is the Dyswick Bayview Blast hosted by BSMC. Entries opened for the SE Qld round of the National XCM series this week.

In terms of each event, many of us have needed that kick early in the morning and with Jungle Bean at nearly all of the races we have been able to shake off the lack of sleep and get caffeinated!

JR - whilst I have had to turn the speakers down a few times in 2015, you have to admire JR's dedication to MTB racing in SE Qld. As commissairre of many of the rounds, JR has been of great assistance to me in my first year of coordinating the series to show me the ropes and one of key milestones each round is delivering the elites to the start line on time in every round.

Finally the team from Timing Results - Hayden and Fleur Brooks. Whilst many think they just do the timing, I have had to rely on Timing Results a lot in 2015. They have assisted in managing the registration process, getting race numbers, race results and in many other aspects of the running of the Nomad Series. Whilst we are talking team Brooks dont forget the Epic is on in 2 weeks time so get your entries in for our largest MTB race in SE Qld and possibly in Australia.

Thanks to all those mentioned above, and also thanks to you the racers and parents for your ongoing support of the Nomad Sunshine Series in 2015.
