The Course
   
2010 Course
Start/Finish:  Mount Airly, 9 kms east of Capertee Township on the Glen Davis Road.
(Just follow the event signs which will be placed on the Saturday morning)
Start: Le Mans style, 100 metre run to your bikes
Distance: 
  • Championship Track "C" = distance is 60 km
  • Social Track "S" = distance is 40 km
  Sunday’s course will run over exactly the same route but in reverse direction.
Track: 

The course covers a number of surfaces, including sealed roads, clay based roads, gravel, sand, rocks and grassed two wheel tracks. There are a few steep climbs and challenging downhills. Some sections are lower quality 4WD track where riding could be interesting if the weather is bad.

The course is lined with trees but has some exposed sections, so be prepared for sun and wind.

The course passes through nine PRIVATE properties with views and some live stock. During the event, the gates on private properties will be open so please be aware that there could be wandering livestock on or near the track. If in doubt, give way to cows.

Major intersections will be be manned by an official. The rest of the course will be marked with arrows and bunting.

Mid-point checkpoint: 
 

For safety reasons, riders will give their name and number at the mid-point checkpoint. First aid will be available at this location.

Any riders wishing to retire will have the option of stopping and getting a lift back to the start/finish area in the sweep bus which will follow the course. Officials also have the option to withdraw riders from the race if they do not reach this point by a certain time (to ensure completion before dark).

RULE OF THE BUSH
  Please note: Leave all gates as you find them.
 

Give way to animals!!

A reminder - we are on private property!
