More BikeO-75 Action at Woodlands, Saturday February 4

The second round of this year’s Bike-O 75 series is at Woodlands Historic Park, Greenvale on the evening of Saturday 4 February.

Woodlands Historic Park, just near the airport, is a fun riding area for all of the family. The park has nice trails running open through parkland and bushland, with an added challenge of some straight forward navigation to take you around the park.

We are starting just outside the western edge of the park in an open area off Oaklands Drive, midway between Sunbury and Somerton Rds.

This series is perfect for newcomers who want to try mountain bike orienteering, as well as for regulars.  You have 75 minutes to ride to as many control points as you can, and score points as you go, using the colour map provided.  How you get to each control is up to you!

Please make sure you read the BikeO-75 Participant Guidelines before entering, so that you know how to stay safe, and what to expect at the events.

Bring your phone or compatible watch, as MapRun6 will be used to record control locations.   You’ll also need to check in via QR code, at each event.  Use your phone’s camera or QR code reader app, to provide your name and contact phone number.

Entries: online pre-entry and pre-payment via Eventor are strongly preferred. Fees: Adults $12, Juniors $6.  Pay online, or with cash or card at the events.  Cash in correct amount accepted if no other option.  Enter online for Woodlands
