Bonk Hard Racing Moves the Midwest's Premier Adventure Race to New Location
for '06

Bonk Hard Racing has moved the Berryman Adventure to a brand new race
location for 2006. After 5 great years of hosting the Berryman Adventure
near Steelville, MO, Bonk Hard Racing has moved the very popular race, held
September 22-24, to the National Park Service's Big Spring Park, near Van
Buren, MO.

The area around Big Spring Park is a prime spot to host an adventure race,
with 3 crystal-clear, spring-fed rivers to paddle, steep elevation gain and
loss, miles of single track trails and plenty of beautiful backwoods forest.
This year's Berryman will be sure to send racers on an adventure unlike any
other in the past.

Offering a 12-hour, 24-hour and 36-hour course, the Berryman Adventure,
sponsored by The North Face, can cater to racers of all levels. If you are
planning to race the 36-hour course, be very prepared for tough navigation
and a much longer and more difficult course than in the past. All courses
will feature fantastic river paddling, tough navigation and plenty of single
track mountain biking.

The top three 36-hour, 4-Person Co-ed teams will qualify to race in the
USARA National Championships held November 3-4 in Southern California.

Bonk Hard Racing will also be announcing their 2007 race schedule and
locations at the Berryman Adventure, with some very exciting news and
information about the upcoming year.
