MTB Trail Report
Trail crew update: 17th January 2025
The trails are in great condition after the recent rain! Our trail crew has been busy working on Heavy Metal, Packhorse, and Flowtown in preparation for this weekend's XCO and XCM races. Heavy Metal has re-opened this afternoon—get out there while it's good! Just watch for soft spots and some changes on your first lap.
