Gravity goodness…get in your final laps at the Mountain Bike Closing Weekend

Posted on 27 Apr, 2021 in Festivals & Events

Finish off 30 years of Gravity with a BANG! After a huge summer of riding we’re capping off the good times with a stack of dope events on and off the mountain this weekend.

The Thredbo Mountain Bike Park is primed and ready for some flight time with cooler temps forecast to create tacky conditions all weekend. Clock up the final laps with your mates on crowd favourite’s Kosciuszko Flow Trail and Cannonball Downhill and hit the jumps and features in the Valley Terminal Park and Little Beauty Jumps Park.

On Sunday dial the banter to ten for Chainless Champs. Remove your chain, put on your craziest costume and channel your inner Aaron Gwin as you pump and hold speed down the Kosciusko Flow Trail from the Easy Street exit to the Valley Terminal base station. With overall points of the line, competitors will be leaving it all on the course to take out the Thredbo Gravity Series crown.

This event is guaranteed to be a laugh with prizes for the Best Dressed Competitor…registrations close 5PM Friday, click here to register and get in on the action.
