23.01.2022 The queensland team Getting it done"" Cracking day out at the Rocky Trail Entertainment Shimano GP, Sugarbag Trails Caloundra. With the single speed powerhouse Daniel Schilk recovering from surgery and unable to do his normal job of being on the podium, the combo of Dustin, Matt and me stepped up and got on the podium with a 1st in category and 2nd overall in teams. We had no choice as the only 3 man 40-49 team in the 7hr. I wouldn’t turn up if I was racing me either . The ...Sugarbag trails are awesome, with lots of wooden features and a labyrinth of flowing single trail. I had the privilege of a dropper post stuck in the down position all day so ‘feelin the burn’ is very appropriate. A couple of misadventures for Dustin but in all it was smiles all round. Looking forward to the Rocky Trail line up for 2021!! . . #ridejetblack #jetblackproducts #theoddspoke #rockytrailentertainment #hubbardproof #prismbike #ambmagazine #mitastyres #raceface #ridefox #mtb #northerninlandacademyofsports See more

21.01.2022 Looking to fill up the 2021 calendar with some amazing events from another one of our favourite event promoters - In2Adventure Check out events, dates and of course the poster picture from this year Snowies race from some of the JetBlack MTB Racing team members.

19.01.2022 Northern Inland Academy of Sport (NIAS) Cycling Program are completing their year with numerious local club events. This week they visited the trails at Copeton Dam with host club Inverell MTB. This is the 10th annual Copeton 6hr, with around 100 participants lined up to ride, including five of NIAS's enthusiast MTB athletes. The Copeton track was well prepared by Inverell MTB club, with a great mix of fast flowing ascents and descents. The Copeton trail and event hub was con...veniently close to the Reflections Park kiosk and the Inverell MTB volunteer staff run a smooth event. One of the NIAS pair teams was Harry Fairfull and Lawson Walsh. Harry has this to say about his race, "Lawson started the race enabling us to get a good start. We rode fairly well with both of us having similar times." Harry went on to ride 4 laps with Lawson completing 5. "It was a good experience riding at Copeton, technical features included steep rocky climbs and sandy descents. We ended up fourth in our category (Open Male Pair, which included adults)". Both athletes stepping up to the challenge with an outstanding performance. Our other NIAS pairing of Campbell Walsh and Jock Hollis also raced in the Open Male Pair category. Again both athletes performed to a high standard with near perfect race conditions and no mechanical issues. "It was a good day and a great turn out of people. Everyone seemed to enjoy," Campbell said about his local event. Campbell and Jock have learnt a lot in the last year, having been paired together on many occasions, and relish the measure a pairs race can bring. The boys went on to place third in the Open Pairs category. Lachlan Butters rode in team with previous NIAS athletes, the Roberts brothers, in the Teams of 3/4 category. After a fast start by his team mates Lachlan had a flat tyre mechanical on his lap, he did however recover from this to put in three fast laps and help his team secure first place in the category. A spokes person from Inverell MTB Club said from what they saw all NIAS athletes rode out of their skin and wish to congratulate them on their outstanding rides. Athletes will continue their local racing with and TAMMTB 3hr this month, plus some Regional Training at Mt Borah. Thanks to our NIAS parents and sport sponsors for their continuing support. #ridejetblack #jetblackproducts #theoddspoke #rockytrailentertainment #hubbardproof #prismbike #ambmagazine #mitastyres #raceface #ridefox #mtb #northerninlandacademyofsports #northerninlandacademyofsport #cyclingnsw #ridejetblack #tammtb #compassphysiotherapy #thebrokenspoketamworth #crummymtb @nias_sport @jetblackmtbrace @cyclingnsw @tamworthmountainbikers @compassphysiotherapy @thebrokenspoketam @CrummyMTB

13.01.2022 Over the weekend Northern Inland Academy of Sport (NIAS) athlete Kaden managed to squeeze a trip to Canberra to compete in the Rocky Trail Entertainment GP4 in ...a team with Rocky Trail JetBlack MTB Racing regular Guru. Here is his race report: On Friday I arrived in Visit Canberra at Stromlo Forest Park to compete in the RTE GP four hour race, on Saturday. During our practice lap in the afternoon the trail was a bit wet still after some recent weather but still a heap of fun. The trails themselves are very smooth, with very few rocks compared to Tamworth Mountain Bike Park. The course Rocky Trail had set for the GP included a couple of technical sections on the climb and lots of very smooth downhills. In the morning before the race I hung out with the JetBlack Team and spoke to lots of people. On the first lap my highlight was the crashed I had trying to overtake someone, where I then fell off the track into a pile of rocks. I then continued to do three laps with my partner Guru. We came fourth in our age group! All together it was a very good weekend! Kaden laps were a 42, 39 and 45 minutes respectively over the almost 10km course. Well done! NIAS athletes continue their progression with a Regional Training Session at Mt Borah thanks to The Broken Spoke Tamworth, and a SuperFlow event at Awaba Mtb Park.

09.01.2022 Northern Inland Academy of Sport (NIAS) Cycling Program athletes completed their year with a final tour to Rydal, near Lithgow, for the JetBlack 24hr endurance ...event. The event was run by Rocky Trail Entertainment and based out of the Rydal showground, featuring almost 9km of narrow trail purpose built for mountain biking. Hosted by sport partners JetBlack MTB Racing, NIAS athletes began arriving at Rydal on Friday morning for the Saturday event. Two competitive teams had been built around seven of the 2020 NIAS MTB squad with riders from Inverell, Gunnedah, Binnaway and Tamworth. But they might not have expected the weather to be so windy cold on arrival, the December afternoon temperatures got down to 10 degrees. Saturday morning brought a chance to do a reconnaissance lap with seven times World 24hr Solo Champion, and current Australian 24hr Solo Champion, Jason English. Jason shared his experience and knowledge of the Rydal trails, 24hr events and trail craft with the athletes during the hour they were with him. An awesome opportunity to listen, learn and ask questions. The two NIAS teams were entered in the 6+6hr relay event, which started at the same time as the 24hr. The difference between the events was the 12hr pause at 6pm for the 6+6hr, allowing athletes to rest and recover before restarting again at 6am. They then were challenged to ride till 12 midday, completing the 6+6hr. Campbell Walsh lined up on a star-studded front row for race start representing the NIAS All-stars team. He was next to Jason English and a young rider named Brad Weston, who went on to claim fastest lap for the event, down the row was New England region and 24hr solo riders Alwyn Miller and Mick Sherwood. Starting for the NIAS Chiefs was Jack MacKay, just a row or two back. Campbell handed over to Jock Hollis after a pretty good start lap, Jock then nailed the mostly clear course with his fastest time (and fastest for the team) of the weekend. Jock handed over to Tom Jenkins of JetBlack MTB Racing, who had been called in at the last minute to makeup the four-athlete team. Tom then handed over to Jack Larkin with all riders completing their first laps in under twenty-eight minutes. At this mark the All-stars had a fifteen-minute lead on their category rivals and ten minutes lead on any adult teams of four. The Chiefs were lapping pretty consistently too, with Jack MacKay completing their first lap handing over to Lawson Walsh. Lawson handed over to Harry Fairfull, then Harry handed over to Kaden. Just under six hours later Harry again handed over to Kaden who completed the Chiefs’ first block of riding, and twelve laps. At 0635 on Sunday, Jack MacKay set off for the Chiefs again. This was after the team had a twelve-hour break, they rotated riders relay style as they had the day before. Some legs were a little tired but some riders were still perfecting their style and performance. Rydal had its challenges, loose sandy berms kept the team agile and aware, said Harry Fairfull after the event, My goal for Sunday was to get under a 30-minute lap. Amazingly Harry managed to crack the 30-minute lap on his second last lap of the event, besting his previous best 30:02 with a 29:59. The Chiefs completed 23 laps with Lawson sending Harry out with just five minutes before the 12-midday cut-off. This result placed them second amongst the Junior Teams of Four for the 6+6hr. All the work from this year has paid off and was shown with this race, Harry complemented his teammates and the experience that the event brought. Back with the All-stars, the team of Campbell, Jock, Tom and Jack all completed their first six-hour block with sub 30-minute lap times. They were able to send Jock out for the team’s final lap with just a minute to spare on the clock in the first six hours. On completion of Jock’s lap, fourteen laps for the All-stars team, both teams assembled for a BBQ by JetBlack MTB Racing giving everyone a chance to share their experiences and catchup while not riding. JetBlack MTB Racing’s Tom Jenkins began Sunday for the All-stars, again the team were able to continue their sub 30-minute laps. The trails had changed slightly overnight with more braking ruts, and a more powdery and dusty surface. Solo and 24hr team riders littered the trail but they were providing plenty of space for overtaking when needed. Jock finished the second 6hr block just over three minutes after the 12-midday cut-off giving the team a massive 26 laps, bettering all other 6+6hr four-person teams. Rydal was one of the most exciting races I have ever been to, Jack Larkin reported, The race was fast paced with every lap being a sprint. I was passing people every few minutes on the track trying to get fast lap times. Our team went hammer-down to stay in 1st place in our category and overall in teams of four. It was a very different track to what I have raced on previously, Jock reflected on his weekend, It helped me identify and work on the weak spots in my riding. Rydal was great and the people were even better, being able to spend time with the other NIAS riders was the highlight of the trip. I’m looking forward to 2021 with NIAS. Thanks to our NIAS parents and sport sponsors for their continuing support. #northerninlandacademyofsport #cyclingnsw #ridejetblack #tammtb #compassphysiotherapy #thebrokenspoketamworth #crummymtb @Northern Inland Academy of Sport (NIAS) @JetBlack MTB Racing @Cycling NSW @Tamworth Mountain Bikers @Compass Physiotherapy @The Broken Spoke Tamworth @CrummyMTB

04.01.2022 Some of the Northern Inland Academy of Sport (NIAS) Cycling Program athletes returned to racing for the 2020 season with a visit to Awaba, just outside of Newcastle, to compete in the Rocky Trail Entertainment SuperFlow event. With the backing of their sport partners JetBlack MTB Racing the athletes had to contend with some of NSW’s fastest Enduro riders, under our current COVID conditions. For some of the athletes this was the start to their representative racing for 2020, h...aving only raced locally with Tamworth Mountain Bikers and their other local clubs before the pandemic hit. Saturday at Awaba was wet, muddy and slippery after the rain stopped mid-morning. With three mostly descending trails to test themselves against the athletes aimed to get the shortest collective time. There was very little grip, Campbell Walsh from Inverell told us, it turned out to be a good day of racing, but conditions were pretty bad. From Tamworth Lachlan Marsh recounts the three trails from Saturday. The Lazer track was nice and flowy with a few jumps and lots of berms and rollers that you slid through. The Fox track was nice and fun at the start, then it turned into a pedalling, sliding track with a few rocks and some faster sections. The Stans track was the XC loop climb, backwards, it also required lots of pedalling. Compared to Saturday, Sunday the trails had turned fast and tacky and the athletes racing on Sunday crossed their fingers the rain wouldn’t return. Lachlan Butters from Tamworth was one of the Sunday racers and describes his first ever SuperFlow and event at Awaba as Very, very different! You really had to be on your game, sprinting out of every corner for every track. Summing up his experience, It was an amazing weekend and I’m frothing for the rest of the SuperFlow season. It felt so good to be back racing.

Future focuses include Rocky Trails' GP at Ourimbah and the JetBlack Cycling 24hr at Rydal in December. The NIAS Cycling athletes would like to thank their parents and sport sponsors for their continuing support. #northerninlandacademyofsport #cyclingnsw #ridejetblack #tammtb #compassphysiotherapy #thebrokenspoketamworth #crummymtb

The committee made the choice of providing this recognition to Tom who has dominated in all disciplines Superflow & XC. Excited to see where 2021 takes Tom on his quest for National glory in the Superflow. Both on and off the track Tom provides a huge commitment ...to not only the team but all sponsors. #Watchthisspace #ridejetblack #jetblackproducts #theoddspoke #rockytrailentertainment #hubbardproof #prismbike #ambmagazine #mitastyres #raceface #ridefox #mtb #Hometimberandhardware #northerninlandacademyofsports

01.01.2022 JetBlack MTB Racing expands to banana bending territory! Now that restrictions have eased the team is raring to hit the trails! 1st up for the QLD crew are the awesome trails of Daisy Hill in Logan on August 1. With 3 members now residing in QLD and a few dedicated NSW crew making the trip north of the border for this round, it’s the least the team can do to help support one of our long term sponsors and supporters, that being Martin and Juliane from Rockytrail Entertainment.... Not long after expanding north, the unfortunate global pandemic hit and put pay to their expansion. With the future uncertain for not only them, but the entire MTB community, it is great to see that there is some light at the end of the tunnel and racing can resume to some sort of normality! I’m sure we speak on behalf of everyone in the team, and thank Martin and Juliane for hanging in there and constantly looking for ways to bring you that ‘Rocky Trail Entertainment’ during covid19 and also thank all of our sponsor's for continuing to make our racing possible. . . #ridejetblack #jetblackproducts #theoddspoke #rockytrailentertainment #hubbardproof #prismbike #M2Oindustries #blacktownfamilydental #ambmagazine #mitastyres #raceface #ridefox #mtb #northerninlandacademyofsports See more
