2025 KARRATHA 6-HOUR

The Pinnacle of Day/Night Mountain Bike Endurance Racing!

The next Karratha 6 Hour cross-country mountain bike race will take place on Saturday, 26 July 2025 – perfect timing to make the most of the ideal cooler weather conditions in Karratha.

The main event runs from 1500hrs until 2100hrs with the start/finish line located at the Event Village at the Karratha MTB Club, 84 Rosemary Road, Karratha.

The event concludes with presentations and a social post-race wind down. Food and soft drinks will be available at the Event Village. Specific event details will be released closer to the date.


How It Works

The objective is simple: ride as many laps of the course as possible in the allotted 6-hour time limit. Riders can participate solo or in teams.

If riding in a team of 2 or more, there is no set format — your team decides: - Who rides when - How many laps each rider does - Who’s bringing the refreshments!
