Our State Round has come around again and sadly this could be the last held at the Nanga Pines in dwellingup due to scheduled loging next year, Matt Bell has put in a few new sections to the old Toms Crossing track from back in 2004 making it one of the best in W.A well thats what we reckon anyway.

Dates are July 1st and 2nd, Saturday there is rego from 9am till 4pm and practise starts at 11am until 4pm with trailers and buses provided. Sunday rego 8am till 9am compulsory practise 8am till 9am racing starts at 10.30am with trailers and buses, we will be using Perth Mtb’s timing equipment so everything will be spot on. If you dont know where Toms Crossing is scroll down the page and take a look at the map.

The track has been extremely dry all year but as usual the heavens will probably open up on us on the day so bring a nice selection of rubber. Food and drinks will be available on both days and as far as accomodation you cant camp at the track but about 200 metres away is the Baden Powell campsite or even the Community Hotel 95381056 or Caravan Park 95381157 in town otherwise you could contact the Dwellingup Visitors Centre 95381108 for more info.

Race fees: Under 13’s & 15’s $30, Under 17’s & 19’s $40, All others $50 all prices include shuttles on both days. Non Mtba members will need to pay a $15 day licence or $80 for 1 years membership, $20 is all you need to become a Peel memeber and if you dont have your own number plates $5 gets you one and you can use it all season.

At the moment we have these sponsors for our State Round: Rockingham Hotel, Jason Mazda, Bundy Rum, Malaga Cycles, Dwellingup Community Hotel, Mandurah Bike Man, The Bycycle Entrepreneur, Atrium Resort Mandurah and the Red Bull Chickys will be handing out Tins for the riders and more to come.

 Australians Sam Hill and Tracy Hannah dominated today’s DH race at Sugar Mountain in North Carolina with both winning their first NORBA race in convincing fashion and both smashing their respective opposition. After a bit of rain last night Sugar Mountain finally had a clear sunny day ready for the DH finals. The conditions were still muddy and slick causing havoc for many Aussie riders including Jared Rando, Jared Graves, and Justin Havukainen who all had big offs during their final runs.
