About the races……
The Summer Series is a 35 minute cross country (XC) race, with each rider can do as many laps of the set course as possible in that time. The tracks are short and designed to be fun, A lines and B lines will be in play.
This year we're adding a twist. Each time the event is held at Kookaburra Crest, riders have the choice between the XC race OR the Gravity Funduro race with some fun and short timed descents.
When the Summer series alternates to UNE, only the XC option will be available to all riders.
