State champs course map

The State Champs track has been finalised.

The design criteria for State Champs differs a bit to the Winter Series XCO courses to accommodate age group versus ability based classes and to act as a stepping stone to the more difficult courses found at National Series and National Championship events.

The course features a mix of tight pine forest single track, steep climbs and fast open sections all interconnected with plenty of passing opportunities. The lap is 5km in length and has 180m of climbing.

There is a separate map for the first and second half of the lap and most of the major intersections have already been marked out to allow riders to practice in preparation for next weekends race.

Don’t forget entries close 10am Saturday November 15th and there are strictly NO on the day entries.See you on race day!
