Entry for the HDATO open.

It's on like Donkey Kong people. The 1st Enduro of the Victorian Series, the Hard Day at the Office, is now open for entries with the race being less than a month away. This year the Felt Enduro Team will be running 2 male pairs for the entire Victorian Enduro Series adding a little spice to the friendly in-house rivalry in the team. In the red corner will be the young fresh faced pairing of Paul 'The Kid' Van der Ploeg and Scott 'Clean' Liston versus the experienced, race hardened pair of 'Captain Jack' Lamshed and Mark 'Grizzly' McDougall, residing in the black corner. (That is one way it could go but the more likely outcome and less hyped is... Both teams perform to their utmost ability and finish with strong results all season long.)
It promises to be a very enjoyable season for all the team members and the associated partners/sponsors with all riders reporting to be in pretty good shape and ready to get to the business.
The same rule from previous season's still applies, if you have any questions or are interested in any Felt product come up to the Felt site at the races and chat away.

National Championships:
After a solid 24th position at the Australian Road Championships, Paul is backing up for the XC National Championships at Mt Stromlo on the Australia Day long weekend. He will be joined by fellow Felt Enduro Team rider Scott in the U/23 field in what promises to be a big test for both riders. Both showed excellent form at Thredbo in December and should be in the mix come the final laps of the race in the A.C.T. If you're inclined to go to Mt Stromlo, support the boys, as they battle the track themselves and the heat. I have being reliably informed that there is now more than 1 tree at the course which is a bonus for spectators.
