24.01.2022 Well done to the St Pats riders who have come out and competed in the twilights so far. Some great results already. To those who are yet to give racing a go, come along and give it go.

20.01.2022 We are organising a few girls only rides. These will be held on Wednesday afternoons, 3:34-5:00. 26th Feb, 4th Mar, 18th Mar. I would like to have one or two women accompany these rides. Will be working on basic skills and just having some time hanging out and having fun on bikes. If you could give up an afternoon or two to help out could you please email me ([email protected]) or leave a comment below. Thanks.

20.01.2022 For those who haven't found it yet, here is the link to the results from today. Thanks to all those that helped today, especially Dirt Devils members Chris Jenkins and Adam Christopher, our timer Peter Bird (and Jamie Lovell for setting up the program) and Mel de Clouet for the commentary. Thanks also to all the schools that come, students, parent and especially the teachers who step up to organise their team. Hope to see you all next year! https://my2.raceresult.com/125288/results?lang=en

15.01.2022 Following directive of the Principal and the Sports Co-ordinator to cancel all sport training, there will be no Mountain Bike training until further notice. I realise that the risk of spread is minimal in a non contact/individual sport like Mountain Biking but this is so that the message is consistent across the College. Sorry for any inconvenience.

14.01.2022 All Schools Road Champs are also coming up on 17th May. Two different events, Novice for those new to road racing and Member, for those with a Cycling Australia race licence. http://tas.cycling.org.au//2019%20Come%20%20Ride%20All%20S

14.01.2022 Training starts this Tuesday, 11th.

13.01.2022 Well done to those that made it out to Osmaston on the weekend for the State Series XCO race. Great to see you out there giving it a go, Lockie, Tom, Ethan, Oliver, Harry and Conor.

13.01.2022 Only 2 weeks until the 2020 Youth Skills Challenge! We have a great ambassador team with some of the strongest Tassie enduro and XC riders, including Tom Styli...anou, Finn Girling, Dan Aurik, Conor Dobson, plus Will and Sam Hugo. Fenella and Naomi Harris will also be there to share their skills and experience - the event is ideal for both girls and boys. In total the kids will tackle 4 skills stations covering a wide range of mtb skills. Numbers are limited, so get your entry in to avoid missing out. Every entry includes a free sausage and drink at the bbq lunch. Full details and entry link: https://www.facebook.com/events/547739519156013 See more
