Max Cluer Sports Marketing is proud to present the second Hewlett Packard Urban Rage MTB Assault Race presented by Jeep Apparel on Saturday 12th December.

This event was held for the first time in December last year and brought something unusual and refreshing to the world of the two-wheeled sport. What is unique about this event is the integration of technology with ‘Generation X’ – the generation that is redefining technology through communication, business and leisure and made it personal with the incorporation of Web 2.0 media into aspects of everyday life with products like You Tube, FaceBook and My Space.

The concept of a short, technical and thrilling course remains the same but this year participants and spectators can look forward to a shorter, more compact course along with more viewing points and grand stands for viewing and the opportunity for the public to participate in various competitions. Entries will be encouraged in the Cool Cats (Teams of 2) and Corporate Cats (Teams of 3) categories while this is also a good opportunity for individuals to team up and ride the course more frequently in their quest to take the honours in the Super Cats final at the end of the day.

The youngsters will be included in the fun and action with their own event in the morning in the ‘Kitty Cat’ race on a special course through uShaka Marine World. Entry fee includes free entry to uShaka Marine World for one child and parent and a free dolphin show!
