Glenorchy MTB Park to host round 1 of National MTB Series

The weekend of December 12-13 will see the return of the MTBA National Mountain Bike Series to the Glenorchy Mountain Bike park in Tasmania. This will be the fourth time the Park has hosted the series, over this time Glenorchy has become a firm favorite with riders from across the country. This year the venue will offer all disciplines- cross-country olympic format, cross-country short course, cross-country enduro (new this year), downhill and four-cross/mountain-cross.

Dirt Art will once again be sprucing up the trails with plans to make some exciting new sections on the cross-country and downhill trails, and some revamping of the four-cross track. Punters will also have the chance to hit the newest additions at the park including, the new dirt jumps area and pump track, downhill jump track and dual slalom.

More event info and volunteer information will be posted up soon.

Kempton Dirt Jump Park nearly ready for launch

The Tasmanian midlands community of Kempton will soon have a brand new dirt jump park, with works near completion on the latest Dirt Art creation. The park has been designed to suit beginner to intermediate riders and will offer a variety of different jump and pump line options, including a larger 'trickable' box jump. Completion is due on the 24th August and the park should be settled in and ready to ride by the 29th August.
