REEF 2 REEF: Back in the Hands of Locals – 2026 is Set to Be the Best Year Yet!

Get ready for an unforgettable adventure in Far North Queensland! Thanks to the locals' expertise, 2026 promises to deliver an authentic, exhilarating MTB experience like never before. We’ve been listening to the feedback from riders in 2024 and 2025, and this year, we’re taking you on new, thrilling trails that will make the singletrack bike park even more diverse. We have exclusive access to some of the most stunning locations, typically closed to the public, making every ride truly special.

What’s New in 2026?

The return of the Pairs Category is here, with the combined age of your pair determining the race category. Plus, we're introducing an e-bike category for those looking to add a little extra power to their ride.

This race will still challenge your technical skills, but don’t worry – it’s designed for anyone with a reasonable fitness level and some MTB experience. The focus is all about having a great time, soaking in the incredible trails of FNQ, and finishing each day feeling accomplished—not completely wiped out!

Course Info & Updates

We’re working hard to get approvals for exciting new locations, and as soon as everything’s finalized, we’ll release the full course details so you can prepare for the ride of a lifetime.

Prizes and Recognition for All

There will be prize money for the top riders, but we believe this is truly a rider’s race. It’s about the journey, the experience, and the camaraderie. We’ll ensure that everyone—whether you’re in the front, middle, or back of the pack—has a shot at taking home something cool, thanks to our amazing local sponsors and bike industry partners.

The Cairns-based Crank Collective Events team can’t wait to welcome you to Cairns in 2026. Registrations open mid-2025—start getting ready for the adventure of a lifetime!
