Welcome to the Fox Superflow in Townsville! This is some general information for race participants and visitors on the weekend.

This Superflow race is absolutely going to rock your world! Supported by Townsville Enterprise Limited and the Townsville City Council, this event will take you to Townsville’s Mount Douglas Reserve trails with three radical timed race stages – the “epitome of superflow”, says our crew on the ground! Lots of exposed rock sections, a heap of flowy descents, which will dial the froth factor to 11 for locals and visiting racers alike!
We invite you to explore beautiful Townsville with us on and off the ‘rocky trails’!
Boasting more than 300 days of sunshine each year and surrounded by stunning natural landscapes, Townsville North Queensland is just the place to ignite your sense of wonder.
