Star Studded Lineup for Jeep King of the Mountain
THURSDAY, 22 JUNE 2006
The Jeep King of the Mountain Series features 16 of the world's top riders for the 2006 World professional Mountain Biking Championships, competing head-to-head for a share of the richest cash payout in the sport, topping $100,000, and the keys to a new 2007 Jeep Compass.
In addition to this elite field of pre-qualified international professional racers, the balance of the 16-athlete field - two men and two women - will be invited from the local community or based on results from other national and international mountain bike competitions, allowing these wild card entrants a chance to compete against the best of the best for the coveted title.
Each event in the 2006 season, spanning July through September, will be televised to a national audience on CBS Sports. World Professional Champions will be crowned based on a system of cumulative points earned throughout the Jeep King of the Mountain Series.
