RIDER CATEGORIES

Junior riders must be 13 or over as at 30/12/2021

If your little shredder is under the age of 13 then we need to have a chat and make sure they are up for the challenge. Please contact the event organiser.

Age categories are based on your age at the final round of the series (30/12/2021) per MTBA regulations. This is to prevent age category changes during the series.

SERIES POINTS will operate under the 2018 MTBA National Series scoring system as follows:

Points will be awarded to the all finishers at each of the series races and the final standings will be based on the total points earned in the series. In the event of a tie the winner will be determined by the competitor who has the highest places. If a tie remains the series winner will be determined by the competitor with the best placing in the most recent race.
