BONK HARD RACING TO BRING BACK MIGHTY MO EXPEDITION IN 2008

Prairie Village, KS - 01/09/2008 - Bonk Hard Racing, LLC announced that it
will officially bring back the highly anticipated return of their
expedition-length adventure race, the Mighty MO Expedition. The race is to
be held on May 15 - 18, 2008 and will cover 200-250 miles in the beautiful
and rugged Ozarks of Missouri.

The 2006 edition of the Mighty MO saw some of the top adventure racing teams
in the United States come and take on the 230+ mile course. After being
pushed the majority of the race, Team Nike, consisting of Mike Kloser,
Michael Tobin, Ian Adamson and Sari Anderson, came out on top with a very
impressive win. Afterwards, Ian Adamson had this to say about the Mighty MO
Expedition, "That could have been the best single track mountain biking I
have ever done in a race. There were times that I felt like I was in
another country."

The 2008 edition of the Mighty MO Expedition is going to take teams of four
on brand new trails, rivers and terrain. Teams will once again mountain
bike some of the best singletrack trails in the state as well as paddle
beautiful, spring-fed rivers alongside towering bluffs. The majority of the
race will traverse the rugged Ozarks, and teams will explore remote caves
and some of the nation's largest springs.

Jason Elsenraat, owner of Bonk Hard Racing, LLC, had this to say about the
2008 Mighty MO Expedition course, "We have received a lot of pressure over
the past couple of years to bring back the Mighty MO. There are so many
unique geological features in Missouri. It's an amazing state, and if I
didn't feel like I could put together a course that was just as beautiful
and challenging, if not more beautiful and challenging than the 2006 course,
then I probably wouldn't have even considered organizing another Mighty MO
Expedition. With the course we have in the works though, I don't think that
will be a problem."

Registration for the Mighty MO will open at 12PM Central time on February
4th, and will accept registrations for the first 40 teams. Racer check-in
and the race itself will start at the host hotel of the 2007 USARA Adventure
Racing National Championships, the YMCA Trout Lodge near Potosi, Missouri.
There is a cash purse for the race of over $10,500, with the top team taking
home $6,000 plus some great prizes from The North Face, Salomon, Columbia
Sportswear and Numa Sport Optics.

The Mighty MO Expedition will be a part of the 2008 Checkpoint Tracker
Adventure Racing Series, and all co-ed teams that participate will receive
double the points of a 24-Hour event in the Series. The Mighty MO will
again utilize Checkpoint Tracker, an online race management tool that allows
friends and family at home to follow their favorite teams online. Fans will
also be able to view a detailed course overview, read up-to-date race blogs,
post shout outs to their favorite teams and more.
