We have heard your feedback from 2024 and Reef to Reef 2025 will have some revised course changes. Some technical skills will still be required but will be achievable with anyone with a reasonable level of fitness and MTB skills. The event will get underway with a prologue at Smithfield Mountain Bike Park on the Thursday afternoon - get the legs moving with a short and sharp stage and seed the field for the rest of the stages. Friday will see Stage 1, tackling world class single track, steep climbs, and fast flowing descents at Smithfield MTB Park. On Saturday we will move to the tablelands in the beautiful Atherton, sitting at 700m above Cairns, where you can take on the sprawling network of trails, packed with fast-flowing turns, colossal granite slabs, and creek crossings galore for Stage 2. The final day will encompass both the Stage 3 of Reef 2 Reef and the legendary Triple-R. You will start in the beautiful Mount Molloy, tackling the rainforest, head down the Bump Track to the farm tracks for some great rural scenery, and then finish with the iconic Four Mile Beach - right next to the beautiful reef.

For 2025 we will not be continuing the teams classification.  This will mean that we can increase the prize money for the individuals at the pointy end of the field. The prize pool for this years Reef 2 Reef & Triple-R will be a staggering $13,000. We welcome back our ebikers and are excited to be able to offer a competitive ebike class for both Reef 2 Reef and the Triple-R. More information on the rules and format of this class to come soon.

Entries for the 2025 Reef 2 Reef and Triple-R will open on 2 December 2024 with great prices.

The team at Event Management Solutions Australia is absolutely focused on delivering great, world-class events and so will be focusing on delivering Reef 2 Reef in 2025.
