About

XCO (Cross Country Olympic) is fast and furious! If you rode the Trek Rockhampton MTB XCEN 3 Hour Day/Night at Seeonee Park, then you will be familiar with the trails, because we will be back there again.

But there's a twist - this time we will be racing the Novice Loop CLOCKWISE! Don't be complacent! You will approach a couple of corners a lot faster in this direction!

Rocky MTB aims to be inclusive with separate categories for a variety of ages, genders and even e-bikers!
