Trail Tamer - Cancelled due to Covid-19

This exceptional trail ride will be back again for 2021!
Riders have recommended this as having been the best trail ride on offer with so much variety of tracks and terrain! It's in a fantastic location, about 10 minutes past Kinloch. Exciting new trails - all main trails graded! Expert loops, single track! Kids and novice loops. 

The venue is stunning. From new gum forest to pines & existing native forest trails and old farm tracks...a huge variety, it'll be a superb days riding! Access is easy from the road onto an old airstrip with a huge amount of parking for everyone.

Awesome feedback from riders: "Outstanding event. Brilliant trails & fantastic weather. 3 laps of 300 exc nirvana. Cheers to Epic team."

"It was Epic !!! Thanks everyone for a great day and all your hard work ... man that trail was fantastic!!!"

"No one would believe what a mint day it was....perfect conditions and trails....well done."

"Best ride I've done in a while." "Awesome ride ! Thanks Epic Events."

This was a brand new 1 day trail ride run for the first time in December 2018, and riders recommended this as having been the best trail ride ever with so much variety of tracks and terrain.
