The 35km Classic MTB event has great cash prize money for the first 3 home in each category as well as $500 up for grabs for the fastest overall male and female rider. Electronic timing will be used.

The 23km Recreational ride WILL also be timed but is more relaxed and a great event for those new to cycling or who just want to enjoy the ride and the challenge.

The TEAM event has been amped up this year with the choice of  the 35km track or the 23km track for teams up to 4 with the best 3 times counted towards the winning team.
​

The famous Longbeach Gate trophy is the prize for the 23km event and a new trophy has been introduced in 2016  for the 35km TEAM event.
​

The 12km Family ride is great way to get all of the family out and enjoying the atmosphere of this wonderful event in a safe, well organised environment. The Family Ride will be timed.
