Event Report: Handlebar Pumptrack Challenge II at Stromlo Forrest Park

The Handlebar and Cycle City hire recently held the Pumptrack Challenge II at Stromlo Forrest Park.

Local riders came out to throw down for their chance to take a share in the $1,000+ in cash prizes.

Mitch Benham took the win in elites from a stacked field that included the likes of Harried Burbidge-Smith, Jack 'Willa' Williams and the one and only Biscuit. Mario Baldwin pipped Jack Mules for first place in the juniors with Nathan Li not far behind in third.

Thanks to @Nickwaygoodphoto for capturing all the action, our Major Sponsors and our local partners in the shenanigans - Rocky Trail Entertainment and Dynamic Motivation.
