Mountain bike enthusiasts will converge on Blores Hill as Big Hill Events partners with the Gippsland MTB Club to host the “Gippy Shifty Fifty” endurance race on Sunday, September 20.
Now a firm fixture on the regional cycling calendar, the event offers courses for riders of all abilities, ranging from the full 50-kilometre endurance distance down to the 25km “Shifty Shorty” and an 11.5km “Shifty Smally” loop, with e-bike categories also accommodated.
Organisers are expecting another strong turnout following the success of last year’s event, with local trail builders working to deliver pristine conditions across the Blores Hill network.
On-site facilities will include catering, coffee, and first aid, with online registrations remaining open up until race morning.
Riders looking to take part can find full course details and entry information via the Big Hill Events website.
