“We are spoilt for choice at Mt Buller to pick trails for the Fox Superflow – it’s flow paradise so we’re putting on a 3-day Fox Superflow gravity enduro-style stage race! We have six trails with five timed runs on each on the menu and you have three days to clock in the fastest run on each for your final result.”

“The Rocky Trail Academy is our school kids skills development program – this event will engage youth in healthy social and active recreation and brings a heightened appreciation of nature, the environment, self-reliance , self-learning and independence, all as part of riding a bike in the outdoors. We can’t wait to see the students shred the Buller trails with their friends.”
