Pleasure and Champagne at Coffs - Women Only Event

Want to try mountain bike racing but concerned about all those testosterone-fuelled males on the track? Well, it's time it's girls-only and the boys will be working for us as timers, marshalls and sign-on. All women riders welcome (must be over 12 to enter), whatever your experience.

First time racers especially welcome.

Sunday 5 September at the famous Cows With Guns track, Coffs Harbour. From Coffs, follow Pine Creek Way through Bonville south of Archville Station Rd to Sid Burke Rest Area.
Look for Hunters Rd (behind high mound) and follow for approximately 1.8km. Stay right on Hunters, don't follow Cabbage Tree Rd. At 1.8km turn right onto a minor unmarked road and you're there.

Sign on 9am for a 10am start
You choose your distance: 2, 3 or 4 laps.
Prizes for first, second and third in each division.

Entry $20
Includes day licence - for new riders
