Austrian Pumptrack Series

The Austrian Pumptrack Series, hosted by Suspension Factory, is a racing series held across Austria. It provides season information, standings, a website, and an Instagram page for participants and enthusiasts. One event in Bergheim, near Salzburg, attracted approximately 130 competitors. This stop coincided with the official inauguration of a new bike park, integrating a race with the venue's debut. Bergheim featured a notably extended pumptrack course, likely the longest in the series' history, with most participants requiring over 20 seconds per lap. Felix Schoibl secured victory in 19.469 seconds, finishing roughly half a second ahead of Fabian Reithmayr and two seconds clear of the remaining field. In the women's category, Lena Bauer took first place, followed by Theresa Himmelbauer and Elke Rabeder.
