Here at MFR, we love to innovate with our events and for this event, we’ve organised a special treat for Courses 1 & 2 – a mass start event with the first use of a ‘diamond’ forking system in an event in Australia (that we know of). This course setting format was popularised by the great Thierry Gueorgiou (14-time World Champion and arguably the best course setter in the world right now) and provides plenty of variations for the mass start participants.
Nuggety Range has previously been used for two long distance championship events, but this is the first time that it has been used for a middle distance event. We’ll be starting on the top of the ridge (with spectacular views!) before descending into the spectacular granite below the Rock of Ages outcrop.
Course lengths, driving directions, and other important information is on Eventor. Event
