Photos, Race Report: Fox Superflow® Stromlo Forest Park 2022

Kye A’Hern and Connor Mielke claim outright Fox Superflow® wins in Canberra

This was a massive weekend in Canberra with our Fox Superflow® – officially the biggest crowd of #rockytrailracers assembled of all time with just shy off 700 competitors at the start of the four timed super-flowy, gravity enduro race stages.

The race summoned many acclaimed local and interstate gravity riders to Stromlo Forest Park. Organisers from Rocky Trail Entertainment said that the format had been fine-tuned to not only provide a professional racing platform for acclaimed gravity racers, but that it aims at fostering the grassroots level of the sport whilst creating a pathway to gaining raciing experience for juniors.

The Fox Superflow® lived up to its promise to let its competitors “Race the way you Ride”, delivering a challenging yet social racing environment for racers across a wide age range. Almost 250 racers competed in the U13, U15 and U17 categories and over one third of the field was over 40 years old. Elites, U19, B-Grade Experts and 30+ riders accounted for over one quarter of the starters.

Local rider Kye A’Hern was the Elite Men’s and outright male winner with the fastest time on every track (11:19.9) for the weekend. A’Hern is about to head off overseas to race World Cup and said he enjoyed the day out on his local ‘rocky trails’.

Outright men’s:

  1. Elite 11:11.9 299 Kye Ahern
  2. Elite 11:25.4 3303 Thomas Locke
  3. Elite 11:27.2 78 Timothy Eaton
  4. Elite 11:33.7 694 Jackson Frew
  5. Elite 11:46.5 614 Tom Patton

The U19’s racer Connor Mielke from Sydney was the outright female winner (13:14.1) in a field of 66 women. With a top placing with a second outright place at a nationals event in SA in April, Mielke is set to travel to Toowoomba in QLD for the Fox Superflow® EWS Qualifier at Jubilee Park with Rocky Trail this weekend.
