Eduplex Sport is proud to host the first leg of the Hill and Valley 6 Hour and 24 Hour Series. 

The Eduplex Sport Bike Race is open to recreational riders and licensed athletes and will be held at the Eduplex Sport - Test Zone and Bike Park.

The Bike Park boasts a singletrack dirt loop and a pump track. For safety reasons, the sections that are included in the race are not technical.

Enter as a solo rider or as a team, depending on your riding spirit, drive and determination. The team event is a team relay with only one rider per team on the track at any given time.

Riders will ride laps of approximately 5km within the Eduplex Schools and Bike Park Grounds, ensuring the safety of all riders throughout the race. The route is flat and includes mountain bike tracks, a bit of gravel, riding through the school premises and on the sports fields, a bit of the pump track and some marshalled road crossings.

Riders complete as many laps of the circuit as they can within the allotted 24 or 6 hours. 

Please Note: All riders must bring their own rear bike light (with non-flashing mode) and a front light and/or headlamp that is strong enough to illuminate the track at night.
