[Max Headroom]

They not interested in participants. Even the website (which, by the way has incorrect link on this page) does not have info.

I’ll be there! Its a small race raising funds for a great cause and with passionate and dedicated people involved. Keeping the numbers limited is awesome. It will add to the riding experience.

And the nice words are less in number so it would have been faster to type and the outcome so much more beneficial for all parties. Me included

50km MTB

•    7h20 with the 20km MTB
•    7h20 with the 5km trail run
•    Starting point at the Tasting Room
•    13h00 – prize giving

The 50km is technical with a lot of singles, switchbacks, short steep climbs etc. Still fun and always an

option to take the shorter route when on the longer route. Few people complained about the course last year………

So in all fairness technical to some degree. The shorter route we will try and keep open and easy flowing with

single track to a minimum and simple.

Total elevation for 5okm +- 800m. % wise+-   Singletrack 51%
                                                                                          Farm track  33%
                                                                                          Jeep track   16%

same thing as what happened to poor customer service being splashed all over social media without contacting said provider first....

Any idea if it's pre-entry only or can we pitch and pay? I can't seem to find anything stating this on their site.
