Triple-R MTB  Classic Course –

A Legendary Ride Through Rugged Beauty!

The Triple-R (Rural, Rainforest, Reef) is one of the most exhilarating and scenic MTB races in Australia, delivering a 40km journey through diverse and challenging terrain. Here’s what makes this course truly epic:

Rural Section – Fast & Flowing Start

The race kicks off in the rolling countryside, where riders power through open farmland trails and wide dirt roads. This section sets the pace—expect fast pedaling and a few sneaky climbs before the real action begins.

Rainforest Singletrack – Technical & Thrilling

Next, the course plunges into dense rainforest, where the singletrack gets tight, twisty, and technical. Riders will weave between towering trees, navigate root-laced trails, and push through fast, flowy descents. The terrain here demands skill, balance, and quick reflexes.

Creek Crossings – Wet & Wild

Get ready to splash through multiple creek crossings! These natural obstacles test both your line choice and momentum—pick the wrong route, and you might get wetter than expected!

The Bump Track – An Adrenaline-Fueled Descent

One of the most famous features of the Triple-R course is the Bump Track—a high-speed, 3km downhill section that’s equal parts thrilling and demanding. Riders will drop fast through steep terrain, navigating eroded gullies, rocky switchbacks, and loose gravel. This is where the real MTB warriors shine!

Four Mile Beach – The Iconic Finish Line

After tearing through the jungle, the course opens up to an unforgettable beachfront finale. Riders will hit the hard-packed sand of Four Mile Beach, pushing through the final kilometers with the ocean breeze at their backs and the finish line in sight. The combination of speed, scenery, and a roaring crowd makes this one of the most unique race endings in mountain biking.

Why Ride the Triple-R?

✅ Breathtaking scenery – from lush rainforest to ocean views
✅ Fast & technical sections – a mix of flow, power, and precision
✅ Epic downhill runs – including the legendary Bump Track
✅ A finish like no other – sprinting down the beach to victory

Whether you're chasing the podium or just out to challenge yourself, the Triple-R course is an unforgettable ride through the heart of adventure!
