RRR Mountain Bike Challenge

Note: below details subject to change.

The iconic RRR (Rural, Rainforest & Reef) cross country, endurance mountain bike race is the longest running 'point to point' race in Australia. With over 400 local, national and international entrants racing through North Queensland terrain every year, 2012 aims to increase entrant numbers and international exposure.

The RRR Mountain Bike Challenge begins at Mt Molloy and heads outback toward Wetherby Station through cattle country, crossing grids and passing through gates. After kilometres of dirt and dust, the intense hill climbs kick in at Bells Hill, testing endurance and stamina. Crossing into deep tropical rainforest in Julatten, the riders are submerged in dense terrain before turning into the famous 'Bump Track', known for the fast, downhill section. Dropping off the Great Dividing Range into the Mowbray Valley, the riders head out across cane paddocks racing their way to Port Douglas and the stunning Four Mile Beach. The end is near, the Port Douglas Surf Life Saving Club finish line is in sight. In this visually spectacular race, three diverse terrains are dominated. Adventure at its best!
