We have a few changes this year with registration taking place on Saturday 22 August at Peppers Hidden Vale and/or Sunday 23 August before the race.
The Peppers Mega Epic is a two day endurance event featuring a 50km race on Old Hidden Vale on Saturday and the Flight Centre Epic 100km marathon on Sunday.
We have a trade and demo show on Saturday with new bikes from Merida, Scott, Santa Cruz, Spooky and Craver, just to name a few. There’ll be our massive jumping castle and amusement ride for the kids along with the Colour Chiefs Mini and Minor Epics plus the 20km Merida Chaser.
This iconic event offers four challenging distances and several categories to challenge and reward riders.
The Peppers Mega Epic; Saturday 22 August 2009
The Peppers Mega Epic is a two day race format that includes a 50km Enduro on Saturday 22 August followed by the Flight Centre Epic marathon on Sunday 23 August. The Enduro will be conducted on a the Old Hidden Vale single track. The Peppers Mega Epic carries a handsome cash purse.
The Colour Chiefs Mini & Minor Epics; Saturday 22 August 2009
The Mini and Minor Epics are a great way to introduce your children to the joys of off road cycling. Two distances of 7kms and 12kms. Parents can accompany children on the course.
The Merida Chaser; Saturday 22 August 2009
The Merida Chaser is conducted on the Old Hidden Vale property and provides an opportunity for novice riders to 'have a go' and experience some of the awesome singel track on the property. A chance for friends, family and supporters to ride the property before the riders come in.
The Flight Centre Cycle Epic 100km Classic; Sunday 23 August 2009
The full marathon is one of the most rewarding challenges you can undertake. Whether you race fellow competitors, the clock or yourself, completing the Epic is a major achievement. Only a small percentage of the population have acheived this feat... burn the couch, sell the television and join the Epic ranks.
The Merida Pursuit; Sunday 23 August 2009
The Merida Half Epic is a challenging and achievable distance of approximately 50km. This category has a relaxed atmosphere and is for everyone from grandparents to regular mountain bikers. This may not be the full marathon but none the less the Merida Half Epic is an achievement to be proud of.
The Epic Relay Teams; Sunday 23 August 2009
Grab a mate and contest one of the team relays with two or four riders completing two stages each. There is no 'i' in team so this is a great way for you and a partner mix it up over the full distance.
