Saturday 15 October - CANCELLED
3 buddies, 3 courses, 3 hours
Unfortunately we have had to cancel this event. All teams will be given a full refund.
If you have never been out to these tracks they are awesome fun, whether you are a casual rider or hard core.This is an opportunity for you to have some serious fun or challenge yourself with some workmates / buddies.
Your team of 2-3 have a choice of 3 courses, (cruisy, a bit grunty and challenging!), each worth different points, and taking different amounts of time! And what's more you don't have to do the same course each time!
Teams have up to 3 hours to do as many laps as it takes to gain a set number of points.
The fastest teams to reach the target number being the winners, so a bit of strategy will come in useful!
Cozzie time
In keeping with the relay spirit, team outfits are definitely encouraged and we will have a prizes for the best dressed teams!
