Our Women’s Race Series kicks off with an XC race at Craigburn Farm. This will be a fun event to get everyone into the race groove. It will be a three-hour cross country marathon style race where you do as many laps of a course as you can in three hours. You can do it on your own or in a team.
Location: Craigburn Farm.
Race Village will be on Craigburn Road, just past the trail head. Parking will be on Craigburn road between the race village and the trail head.

Riders may compete solo or pairs 'relay-style'. You must have an AusCycling Race Membership to enter this event, although you do not have to be a Gravity Girls member.
