Cycle Station, formerly Pushys Bike Warehouse, are the major sponsor for the series. Providing randomly drawn spot prizes for each round, a bike maintenance night in-store, and a major prize of a Giant MTB. Each race entry gains the participant a chance of wining the bike. So the more races entered, the greater the chance of winning the bike. Each race entry also gains a point in the inaugural Schools Cup which will be awarded at the end of the series to the school with the highest level of participation.

Monumental Ice Creamery will continue to support both the Kids and Youth Series with 2 for 1 vouchers for every participant. Mmmmm.
