Adelaide MTB Club (AMBC) is once again running the Olympic Cross Country (XCO) South Australian State Championships.
Race date
| Standalone | 05 Nov 2017 | Fox Creek | Not open yet |
The State Championships is a stand alone event that determines who is entitled to call themselves the champion of South Australian XCO mountain biking. The title is recognized at MTBA national level events and is an important stepping stone for riders, both established and aspiring.
Registration and Entry
The link next to the race date will take you to registration.
Entry is $30 for senior grades and $20 for junior grades (under 19). An MTBA race or day ($25) license is required for this race.
Registrations will be STRICTLY ON-LINE. If you’ve managed to sneak in after registration cut off this year, IT WILL NOT HAPPEN FOR STATE CHAMPS. If you have any issues registering, email timing@ambc.asn.au before registration cut off and we will make arrangements.
If you’re a sponsor, volunteer or otherwise entitled to a free entry and are not sure how to enter, email timing@ambc.asn.au and we can provide details.
Categories
For this race AMBC reverts to Mountain Bike Australia age classification categories. Age categories are calculated based on age on 31st December.
To assist with this we will be issuing ALL competitors with a fresh, race specific plate. If you are currently in possession of a race plate, please bring it along as we will also be conducting a plate muster.
