ACT Schools Mountain Bike Championships

Canberra Off-Road Cyclists (CORC) is pleased to host the 22nd ACT Schools Mountain Bike Championships.

CORC is Australia’s largest Mountain Bike Club and through its affiliation with AusCycling is committed to the development of mountain biking at all levels.

The ACT Schools MTB Championships aims to promote having fun on a bike through a team based relay event in Canberra. The event is open to school children in years 6-12, from the ACT and interstate. The event started in 1999, and has run every year since except 2002, 2020 and 2021. After a successful event in 2023 we are very excited to be back again this year!

The cost is $25 per rider.

CORC will provide a full refund if any rider, team or school needs to cancel, or if the event is cancelled, due to COVID19 restrictions.
