Senior (over 16yo) bike restrictions:
Chose your class carefully, if you have not ridden hard enduro before select bronze, Silver & Gold classes are design for experienced riders and with good skills.
Registering for Gold does not mean your registration will be accepted, all Gold level riders are vetted based on their ride/race history and experience.
No ebay/pit bikes/home made bikes, all bikes must be in good mechanical order.
No size restrictions for seniors
Juniors (12 to 15) will race for 2.5 hours on Saturday March 6 after completing their prologue.
Juniors will also undertake a hard enduro cross-country to challenge the natural terrain obstacles, there will be plenty of sweeps and volunteers positioned throughout the juniors track to supervise and help where necessary.
All juniors ride the same track, there are no separate classes for juniors.
We encourage junior riders and their family to stick around for the seniors racing on Sunday, there will be plenty of action to see and keep you entertained.
Junior bike & age restrictions:
Junior ages are restricted to 12 to 15, if a junior turns 16 before March 1 they will be a senior
Junior bikes are restricted to 80cc to 200 cc two stroke & 125cc to 250cc four stroke
All junior bikes must be fitted with a manual clutch from factory, meaning no PW80 for example as they will not make it around the course, 65cc bikes will also not make it around the course, hence the 80cc limit.
For juniors who are 15 years old and confident/experienced riders they may be permitted to ride as a senior based on their riding experience, juniors under 12 may be permitted to ride based on their riding experience, email us to request this.
