Husqvarna sets new world Moto Cross endurance record

The event was conceived and promoted by local charity the Table of Knowledge, who raise funds for community support programs ranging from kids with cancer, local ambulance services and families in the community with special needs children and every cent raised goes directly to the community, thanks to the support of volunteers and local businesses.
This one of a kind event was formatted for competitors to complete the maximum possible amount of laps within a 24 hour window commencing at 10.00 am on Saturday and concluding at 10.00 am on Sunday the 27th of September.
The 24 hour record attempt saw Mark complete 317 laps of the Jimboomba course within the time frame. To put this marathon achievement into perspective that is the equivalent of a full National level Moto Cross ten round season completed in a 24 hour period. The total number of laps could have been much higher, however to qualify for the record it was a requirement that track maintenance was performed regularly to maintain the more challenging components of track along with local requirements of watering to reduce environmental impact.
The record has been documented and submitted to the Guinness Book of Records for approval and is expected to be certified this month for entry into this year's list.
