Junior MTB Race Series

2020/21 Junior MTB Race Series

This is a great opportunity for children of all ages and abilities to try racing in a fun, inclusive and low-key way.

 

This year we are running seven races over six venues:

  1. Bright
  2. Dinner Plain
  3. Mt Beauty
  4. Beechworth
  5. Yackandandah
  6. Bright
  7. Falls Creek

All courses and duration of races are set to suit the developmental stages of junior riders, there will be two courses running at each event, a shorter, easier course for younger riders and a slightly longer course for older riders.

 

Whilst some riders will be racing to beat their friends, others will be there for the opportunity to ride a different track with loads of other kids from around the region, everyone is welcome, no matter how fast or slow, as long as they come with a friendly attitude, two wheels and a helmet!

 

Cost is $10 per race

 

A BBQ and series presentation will take place at the final race of the series.

 

  • A certificate and small prize will be awarded to top 3 in each category at each individual race.
  • Points are awarded on a sliding scale for all riders (best 4 races)
  • Series results will not be published until the end of the series as the main goal of the series is participation
  • Series prizes will be awarded to winners of each category with 3 or more competitors
  • To be eligible for a series prize, competitors must have raced in at least 4 races
  • special prizes awarded at the discretion of the race organisers.

 

All events are subject to change to keep in line with the latest Covid 19 government restrictions and the club’s Covid Safe policy.

Mountain biking is an activity which takes place in the outdoors in unpredictable conditions; the safety and enjoyment of our junior riders is important and whilst we will endeavour to run junior program activities regardless of the weather they may be cancelled in cases of extreme weather.
