Rocky Creek Gravel Kermesse - July 2nd
NCC are delighted to announce the first of our gravel races! Taking place within the Rocky Creek Forest, this is an all closed road, gravel kermesse using the Forestry SA fire roads within this section of Kuitpo Forest. Riders will take on a number of laps of the lumpy 14.5km circuit. The course takes in a mixture of sweeping bends, punchy climbs, scenic gravel vistas, and a little bit of (non technical!) singletrack. Riders with off-road skills will have the upper hand, but it will be a hard course to stay away on so well timed attacks will be key!
The terrain and surfaces you will be encountering on this course will require a bike with a minimum of 32mm gravel/cx tyres. While there are no rules saying you cant run a narrower tyre, i wouldn't recommend it! The ideal setup would be 40mm (approx) tubeless tyres. A cyclocross bike/Gravel Bike/hardtail MTB would all make great options!
Entries close at Monday Thursday 30th of June. This event is open to ALL clubs and Auscycling licensed riders. Four week free trial memberships are available for this event. As this is an off-road event, riders are permitted to race on a "race off-road license," aka MTB or BMX race license.
