Let’s Go Enduro!
Gain insights from some of WA’s best mountain bikers and coaches.
WA Gravity Enduro Rider Development Weekend aiming to share insights and growth opportunities for all riders.
During entry, select your preferred day and time and we will pair you up with riders of similar abilities. Depending on the grouping of riders, you will be assigned a coach and taken to a suitable trail for training.
Entries include one coaching session. If you would like multiple coaching sessions, please email claire@wagravityenduro.org or if slots are availabe on the day, day payment is acceptable.
In previous events, we have found that a 2 hour session is suitable for riders to get some great ideas on how to be a better mountain biker!
Linga Longa Bike Park is a top-tier destination for mountain biking adventurers, offering an incredible mix of flowy trails, technical descents, and massive jumps set in the stunning natural landscape of Southampton, about 20mins from Balingup.
Linga Longa Bike Park is nestled in a valley and can get cold overnight, even in Summer. With this event scheduled for May, ensure you bring EXTRA overnight sleeping gear and very warm clothes to brave the bitter cold.

Camping and caravan options are available at the huge campgrounds available around the lake. It may be wet and cold in September so be sure to bring plenty of warm clothing and gear.
The Park is easily one of the best venues in the WA Gravity Enduro calendar with picturesque views, excellent facilities including showers and toilets on-site.
Accommodation fees are made payable through the Eventplus entry portal.
Parking
There is ample parking available on-site.
Spectators
Spectators are welcome to walk up the side of trails but please ensure you are behind course bunting at all times and at least 2m off the trail when riders are descending.
Always be aware of snakes and kangaroos, bring adequate hydration and wear good walking shoes. Please avoid making shortcuts through the bush and walk on the side of the trails where it is safe to do so.
The bush is alive, so watch your step!

We aim to give you the Best Enduro Experience possible and work hard to provide the Best Value Event for your Money.
Organisation
Time required to bring together all facets of the Event.
Advertising
Facebook advertising, video reels and highlights, maps, website design, signage, Instagram feeds, YouTube clips take time and fees.
Sign-posted and Bunted Course
Arriving early to setup the course. This usually involves multiple people over hours or days ensuring bunting, signage and timing equipment are in place for easy navigation and fair racing.
Event Health Services
Your Entry Fee covers St John Ambulance Services being on-site for both Saturday and Sunday. We typically employ 4 x Technicians and engage with St John months in advance
Toilets
Typically, our Events exceed the venue existing facilities. Regional Services are engaged months in advance to deliver toilets. Hire costs continue to grow as Waste Management Fees continue to increase.
Race Village
It takes time to design the Race Village to enable our awesome Sponsors to arrive and setup in suitable locations to suite their needs. Careful attention to Parking, Pedestrians and Riders is needed for the safe and accessible movement of all attendees and event crew.
Applications and Insurances
Typically, several Stakeholders need to be engaged months in advance of any Event. We liaise with Local Governments, State Departments, Auscycling, Local Residents and Trail Custodians to act in the best interests of all parties while balancing a safe and exciting experience for our Community. Fees are required for Insurance and Event Applications.
Prizes, Gift Vouchers, Subsidies
At every Series round, we move $1 of your Entry Fee into our Enduro Pathway Program, donate $5 of your Entry Fee to Public Trails, offer more than $2,500 in Event Gift Vouchers to podium winners and offer $750 to our Elite Men and Women winners. We offer free entries to our Marshals, pay for professional services including multiple Photographers and Videographers and assist with fuel, food and accommodation costs for our Crew.
World's Best Timing System
Our Timing System is considered the World’s Best as used at the Enduro World Series. Yearly licensing, hardware and software upgrades are continuous. Additionally, we send our timing bands back to Germany as required for battery replacements at considerable expense.
Continued Development
Once the essential Event costs are accounted for, we continue to research new ways to improve Results, Live Broadcasts, Mobile Phone Apps, data presentation, website development, manage existing equipment and improve our systems with the aim for a better experience for Competitors, Spectators and our Crew.
