Night racing is a ~15km loop of the McLeans Island Forest. Night racing is a traditional XC style where racers go head-to-head but powered by their own lights. 

The course is on easy grade terrain (grade 1-2) loop and starts/finishes in the paddock (similar to the Hunter Civil 6 Hour Blast). 

Race times range from ~30mins for the race winner and less than an hour for the last rider home.

All abilities are welcome. The start is seeded with fast riders at the front to the fun seekers towards the back.
