The Kevin Blair Memorial Enduro (KBME) returns

In memory of Kevin Blair who with NtrailZ has been fundamental in developing Tunnel Gully as an outdoor recreation area we are happy to announce the third edition of the KBME Enduro.

As with previous years, there will be a hard and an intermediate course. The race will have multiple timed stages, and a "king and queen of the hill" award for the fastest male and female riders.
