I had the pleasure of being able to participate briefly in this event. I was invited to take part in a social team competing in the Monte. I have to confess to members that I undertook only one lap; 19 kilometres was more than enough for me. But it certainly made me realise and appreciate the real challenges associated with mountain biking and, more importantly, how popular a recreational activity it is here in the ACT and right around the country. Indeed, the ACT saw many teams coming from Sydney, Melbourne and many other places. I commend the organisers on the event and wish it every success in coming years.

Question resolved in the affirmative

The Assembly adjourned at 6.27 pm.
