According to Sportcal.com, Team Unlimited, the Hawaii-based group which organises Xterra extreme triathlons, is touting for business and says its offering potential sponsors the opportunity to become Exclusive Signature Presenting Sponsors of the Xterra World Tour in 2001.

This is the first Xterra event in the UK, although the extreme triathlon series has been running in America for the five years.
