Would you be interested in watching or participating in an event that combines mountain biking and shooting? In this event cyclists would carry their rifles (either small bore or air) on their backs over a 40km (?) off-road course, stopping at stations along the way to shoot a series of targets (10m or 50m depending on rifle type) from both prone and standing positions. Missed targets would result in additional seconds added to the contestant's time.

I don't believe this sport currently exists as I've described it. I've seen some similar events except that the riders did not carry their rifles.

Yes, I'm all in with this idea! With my love of both bicycles and airguns this would be a sport sent from heaven!!
