Race Results-Spokes NT Charles Darwin Challenge 2016

11/07/2016 by DORC

Thanks to Ian and the team from Spokes NT for supporting this great event. The course was certainly a challenge!!! For riders and organizers alike!! The course was fairly technical with a fair bit of climbing (for Darwin). The fires that burnt through the park the weekend before made it easy for the riders to spot their lines on the course come race time. Leading up to the event however was almost a nightmare!! Many hours were spent by various volunteers hanging off chainsaws and rakes throughout the week clearing fallen trees and debris from the track. Just when we thought is was all clear a report would come in of further fallen trees blocking the track!! Timing staff were excellent, thanks to them for helping here. There were a few photographers around the track and hopefully we can share their images with you soon. Northern Territory News also ran a short story on the event in Monday’s paper 11/7/2016
