Twenty4 Sports, organizers of the 24 Hours of Adrenalin, will partner with IMBA Canada in 2008 to raise funds and recruit new members. This multi-faceted partnership will be focussed on the 10th Anniversary World Solo 24 Hours of Adrenalin Championships, to be held in Canmore, Alberta, on July 26-27.

The 2008 Canmore 24 Hours of Adrenalin team event sold out in record time. However, Twenty4 Sports held back five spots which will be auctioned in the next weeks with all funds to be directed to IMBA Canada, specifically earmarked for projects and activities in Alberta. These coveted spots represent the only way that teams can join the 1,450 team riders and 200 solo competitors for this awesome weekend of racing. The normal price for team entries is $750, but given the huge demand, quick sell-out and great cause, the opening bid for these IMBA Canada Entries will be $1,000. That means they're guaranteed to raise at least $5,000 for trail advocacy, education and construction.

"There's a really great fit between Twenty4 Sports and IMBA and we're really pleased to announce this partnership," said Twenty4 Sports Director Stuart Dorland. "We've raised over $21,000 through our Canmore events for the Isabel Dube legacy fund, and we're looking forward to using these events as a platform to support IMBA Canada this year and in the future."

Full details on the auction will be released soon - stay tuned to IMBA Canada's website!
