Mini MTB Stage Races built for the Weekend Warrior!

We are all about great trails, beautiful tourism destinations and a race format that is totally different.

Each event has been curated to pair the best locations with the best trails, creating an awesome weekend away to a region that you maybe wouldn’t have considered travelling to before.  Each destination is hand picked – for both Trails and Tourism!  

Podium glory is also done differently at our events. We search to crown the best Weekend Warrior using a unique handicap system, designed to recognise the riders who race most consistently, to the best of their own ability, over all of the stages! 

Best of all, you will only need to take no more than one day off work to attend each event.

 And did we mention Value?  Each one of our events are priced to be affordable so that more people can get back into doing events – offering the best value for money of all of the major MTB events across Australia.   

Pick the event you want to do, but a word of warning, once you have done one you will want to do them all!
