THE trails of Atherton’s Forest Mountain Bike Park were densely populated with riders last weekend as the Fox Superflow Mountain Bike Enduro race took place.
The race has been taking place in areas across Australia since being founded in 2016, drawing from highly popular and similar events in Europe and America.
This year it decided to touch down in Atherton with a wonderful mix of professional and experienced riders alongside casual riders from around the area.
Co-founder of Rocky Trail Entertainment, the company who hosts the enduro race, Martin Wisata said that he was excited to bring the race to the Tablelands.
“We are so proud that finally our very own Rocky Trail racers have hit the tracks in Atherton,” he said.
“The trail network is simply superb and we have been so impressed with the local MTB community's engagement.
“All visiting racers have been commenting on the quality of the trails, which we have been exploring and seen grow so well over the years.”
The locals truly were out in force with Elite racer Caleb Ward from Ravenshoe taking the outright win with the fastest time on the three race tracks, clocking in at 20:01.2.
