3 hour Pony Express style MTB event, the aim is to get everyone out and celebrate all the fun of Cairns MTB community
The best MTB social event night of the year - Join us for an 80's Disco themed Pony Express
We are not playing for keeps, just bragging rights. The list of local supporters is long so instead of fastest laps prizes will be going to all sorts of random lucky draws, novelty laps (so e-bikers and DH be prepared) but most of all to the best 80's Disco fluoro dressed teams.
