Andy Fellows, Our Sponsored Rider

Andy has a very busy racing calendar this year and he has started brilliantly. His results have been outstanding with a 1st place at the Lunar 8hr and a 1st overall in a team of 2 for the Sydney 24hr, Andy partnered with Sean Bekkers also a Tomac sponsored rider.
Andy's next race is this weekend, the Otway Odyssey 100km with 15% bitumen, 14% unsealed road, 36% fire road or double track and 35% single track. It starts on the Victorian coast at Apollo Bay and finishes at Forrest, the town known for mountain biking. There will be some tough competition with the likes of Craig Gordon, Murray Spink (Australian Marathon Champion) and Jason English ( Australia's reigning 24 hr solo MTB world champion) however this is nothing new to Andy as he came 3rd behind Jason in the worlds last year.
We know Andy will give it his best shot and the team here at Cognition wish him the best of luck and are confident of a great result this weekend.

Noosa OOO Mountain Bike Challenge

This is an MTB bike race with a difference.... you get to have lots of fun with your mates while the money goes to a great charity, Working Wonders for sick kids. The race is on Saturday April 17th from 8am to 8pm in Pomona on the Sunshine Coast, the very same town that is home to the Noosa Enduro 100km MTB race. The Sunshine Coast District Police will be co-ordinating the race from the Pomona State School with plenty of room for camping on Friday and Saturday nights with amenities available. The site is close to town giving access to a supermarket, bakery, pub, takeaways and cafes. There will be limited catering so it is highly recommended to bring your own sustenance for the challenge.
The event will be open to solo riders and teams of 2, 3, 4 and 6 with each rider or team completing as many laps of the 12km circuit as possible within the 12 hours. All this for only $60 per rider.
Cognition will be there with on site mechanics and supplies to keep you in the race, we are proud to support such a great cause and look forward to seeing you on the day.
Rider numbers will be capped. Don' t wait, register now! For more information please go to www.workingwonders.com.au/events/
