Welcome to Round 2 of the 2018 WA Gravity Enduro Series!
One of the premier mountain biking locations in the south west, Linga Longa Bike Park has been specially designed to cater for the mountain biker with a diversity of epic trail experiences, shuttle services, camping and camper trailer areas, heaps of parking and plenty of facilities including showers, toilets and cafe (when events are on).
We are super excited to see new trails on offer adding new riding and racing experiences.
Saturday Night will see Boxers Blast turn into a evening ‘Expression Session’ with experienced riders showing us what they can do on a bike from tricks to quick hot laps. If you are interested in the Saturday Night Expression Session, send an email to steve@wagravityenduro.org

Giant Whippets U13
IIn 2018, Giant are sponsoring our littlest competitors at the event. They usually racea few hours before the main event or even the day before – to ensure safe racing for all.
At Linga Longa, U13’s will be racing 2 stages indepenant of the Main Event on Sunday. Competitors will be shuttled to the top, race a stage, are then collected at the bottom, shuttled to the top, and race the final stage. Presentations will commence approximately 1hr after the final competitor has finished his/her final stage. Thanks to Rock n Roll Mountain Biking, our U13’s will be chauffered and well-looked after by professional Mountain Biking leaders.
Course Map
When the time is right, the course map will be made available. We release the Course Map at a time to limit sneaky practice before the event to keep everyone on a level playing field.
For events at private locations, we will release as soon as possible. For events in public MTB areas, we usually release the Course Map on the Monday before the event weekend.
As usual, the Course Map is the intended race course, but is always subject to changing trail conditions, people flying over-the-bar’s, Act’s of God, Act’s of WAGE and peagravel density (or lack there of).
Linga Longa Bike Park
The excitement starts to build as you travel a short 20minute drive south of Balingup where rolling hills start to get bigger in anticipation of things to come. As you drive around the last bend, you are warmly greeted to an open hillside with glimpses of massive jumps, towering Pine trees and a large dam. Camping areas a-plenty, toilets, showers and an on-site cafe, what more could you want!? Oh, yes, how about shuttles??
The trails built for enduro. Plenty of yee-har’s, fast descents, switchbacks, technical trail features and jumps galore, this is an event and location that really needs to be on your list of things to do in 2018.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I enter? Easy. Just click on the ‘ENTER NOW’ button located throughtout the website. This will take you to your registration portal. If you are new to the registration portal, a one-time profile will need to be filled out. Returning competitors simply enter their email address, select their event and arrive at the Race Village on race-day to collect your timing chip and raceplate.
How much does it cost? We keep our entry fees incredibly low. Entry fees vary based on your category but start from only $29 for the Under 13’s. Insurance selection and location can slightly cary the price, but we try to stay as consistent as possible.
Where is the course map? Gravity Enduro is all about riding the course with little to no knowledge of the course. This helps create a more level playing field and better tests your mountain biking skills. We usually release the course map on the Monday before the weekend’s race.
Do I have to go to race briefing? Yes. Race briefing is mandatory and occurs at the race village 15 minutes before race start. It is essential that you get a full report on the course (and any potential changes), safety requirements and to ensure everyone starts the race from the same location.
Can I shuttle between stages? No. Anyone caught doing so will be automatically disqualified.
I missed registration! We can accept late registration online and on the day plus a $15 surcharge. Places are limited and may not be possible if the event is sold out.
Can I get a refund? From the Monday at 9am before the race weekend, refunds, transfers to other competitors or credits are not possible. Before Monday 9am, yes, we can offer a full refund minus 10% administration fees.
PLACES ARE LIMITED TO 320 (exc. Giant Whippets U13).
