Welcome to our NEW Goanna MTB Enduro event! This is a fun and challenging event open to anyone with a mountain bike. But you better do some training! Beginners, novices, veterans and elite riders are all invited to come out and enjoy a great day of riding/racing.
The Nightcap national park is such an awesome beautiful location. We thought it should be celebrated and enjoyed twice a year (along with our other event the Freedom MTB Marathon Oct 13th).
Think warm temperate and subtropical rainforests with amazing views high up in the Byron bay hinterland.
The Goanna MTB Enduro starts on Peates MTN rd 2.5k up from Rummery Park a camping area inside the forest. Camp over in Rummery park friday night before the race, or stay in nearby Mullumbimby (30 minutes from Rummery park)
Rummery Park camp facilities include: Approx 35 camp sites (Grassy spots) Toilets BBQ Cooking (gas and wood) Fire places Bring your own drinking water. Camp Fees: $10 (per adult/15 years + ) $5 (children 5yrs - 15yrs) NO PETS Pay when you get to Rummery Park (First in first to camp) Envelope system please have correct change.
Goanna Enduro Course info: All those who have raced the Freedom MTB marathon know how much fun the first loop is, we thought lets design an event just using the super fun part of the first loop (with less climbing)
So essentially the course starts on Peates MTN rd then turns onto Eastern Fire break which is all fast, fun flowing climbs/descents. Defined single track racing lines.
We have short cutted the loop on Fox rd, to cut out most of the tough climbing on this loop. Then onto the gradual climb up on Perlte rd, onto Peates MTN and do it again!!!!
The loop is 7k and is a blast! All riders follow the RED arrows. This course is awesome and will put a smile on your face! everytime
