Bontrager Twentyfour12 returns on July 7-8 and the organisers have given one of our favourite events the Hollywood treatment in this teaser video.

Twentyfour12 launched in 2006 and was the first event to combine a 24 and 12-hour race. We were at Newnham Park last year to ride the sixth edition. “Brutal but brilliant… this is how all mountain bike courses should be,” was our verdict.

Solo entry for the 2012 race costs £44, while pairs can register for £75 and teams of four for £140. Visit www.twentyfour12.com for more details.
