We are back baby! Anthony Elliott & Josh Kentwell are proud to be running Capital Kamikaze under our new business, Pinned Events Pty Ltd. The racing, froth levels and awesome trails being raced will be stepped up a notch as we take Capital Kamikaze to some new destinations this series! Both Anthony & Josh have helped run Capital Kamikaze since 2020 through CORC and both are passionate about MTB racing. Through Pinned Events Pty Ltd, Capital Kamikaze will take Enduro racing to the next level and both Josh & Anthony are excited to see you all this coming series!
Round 1 of the Capital Kamikaze is hitting the road and heading to Cooma - Mt Gladstone! Race day will be on Sunday, 25th of August 2024. Mt Gladstone is a great place to ride and even better place to race as it has something for everyone. From fast, flowing and groomed trails through to big rock slabs and janky natural trails. There will be A & B Lines around most features, you can even get off you bike and walk sections if you want. More details will be emailed to riders the week leading up to race day.
To be able to race, you need to have either a VALID & CURRENT Aus Cycling Membership or a Race Day Licence which can be purchased via the link below. YOU WILL BE ASKED TO SHOW PROOF OF EITHER AT REGISTRATION ON RACE DAY. IF NOT, YOU WONT BE ALLOWED TO RACE AND NO REFUNDS WILL BE PROVIDED. This gives you Public Liability & limited Personal Accident insurance whilst racing - If purchasing a "One Day Event Licence" make sure you purchase it on SATURDAY BEFORE THE RACE as it commences from the day of purchase and will be valid for 2 days, that way you will be covered for racing this round.
