Race 8 the Grand Finale!

Showka Twilight XC

Starting in daylight at 5pm, you ride as many laps of the 5.5km course as you can in 90 minutes.

The last 30 minutes are in the dark so you WILL NEED LIGHTS!

Organised this year by “Those 70s Kids” MTB Community Group this is as always - the most spectacular MTB race in the Gulf!

Fast sections, Showka singletrack, rocky descents - all with the flashing of lights make for a fitting final race of the Series!

Prizes for the overall GC places will be awarded and some partying afterwards at Wander Camping!
