Ohh, that finish line feeling ❤️‍🔥

Salt lines, dust, and eyes that sting for reasons that have nothing to do with the wind. The smile you can’t hold back, and the tears you don’t bother to. 🥹

Because crossing that line means something. It means you did the thing you weren’t sure you could.

The line is close. One week to go.

A stunning fade from deep blue at the base, rising through lighter blue to white at the shoulders; a nod to what you’ll ride past on race day. 👌

Start times are moving later for our 100 milers ⏰

Due to the start line being a slight further drive, we’ve shifted the order of events later to give everyone enough time to get there. 💨

Elites roll out at 7:30am (30 mins later than 2025), the rest of the batches follow behind in 3 minute increments. All start times and batches will be sent closer to race day. ✔️

Wondering what the gravel to tar split is this year? 👀

Well, we’ve got the answer. this year you’re riding 85% gravel. That’s 130km along farm roads, district roads, jeep track and a couple of cheeky singletrack sections to keep things spicy 🌶️

Only 15% is tar. Around 20km, half of what it was last year 📉 just enough to link one stretch of dirt to the next.
