Description

This year’s event is a Cross Country Marathon (XCM) race lasting 3 hours on some sweet single track in the vicinity of Lake Eildon. E-bikes are welcome, and racing will take place in either age group categories, open male and female (E-bike only) or as teams. The trails will be rideable wet or dry and are suitable for everyone from beginners to experienced riders.
Thinking that 3-hours in the saddle is a bit much?
We are also offering a Short Course Come and Try event for 1.5hrs – similar to a traditional Cross Country Olympic race. This is aimed at any eligible emergency services workers simply wishing to participate, try their hand at racing or just have a ride with friends in a safe and controlled environment.
Teams may consist of two or three riders (a mix of E-MTB and normal MTB is not permitted) and there are no age divisions for the team.

Race Licences:
All riders must have a current AusCycling Race Membership or purchase a Race Day Licence. Race day licences or the 4-week free trial can be purchased online using the link below – Please note that race day licences are only valid on the day of purchase!
