Austrian Pumptrack Series

The Austrian Pumptrack Series held a race at its Bergheim stop near Salzburg, coinciding with an official bike park opening. Approximately 130 participants competed. The series, organized by Suspension Factory, consists of Austrian pumptrack races where riders aim for the fastest times on short, undulating asphalt tracks, differing from a standard point-to-point race. Bergheim featured an extended APS course, with most participants requiring over 20 seconds per run. Felix Schoibl secured the win in 19.469 seconds, finishing around half a second ahead of Fabian Reithmayr. The remaining competitors were generally two or more seconds behind. Lena Bauer took first place in the women's category, followed by Theresa Himmelbauer and Elke Rabeder.
