ROUND SIX (6)
The Pines, Margaret River
ON SATURDAY, we head to the iconic Margaret River trails also known as ‘The Pines’ taking in the magnificent trails of ‘Big Pine’ and the modern ‘Paper Trail’ among many others. Cared for my MRORCA, we hope a little rain before the event sees us splashing through a few puddles, skipping through fast flowy berms under a beautiful bush canopy.
Shelter, Busselton is throwing their support behind the double-header mountain bike weekent at Margaret River and Dunsborough and has put up some sweet prizes!
If you enter either Margaret River of Dunsborough before Friday 16th July 2021, you go into the draw to win one of three $100 Shelter Gift Vouchers!
And if you just want to drop in and see Shelter Busselton, ALL COMPETITORS are welcome to a free coffee, frothy or hot chocoloate anytime on Friday, Saturday or Sunday! (1 x per competitor)
Thanks Shelter Busselton for the support!
Shelter sits at the foot of the famous Busselton Jetty, overlooking tinnies on the bay, foreshore picnics and kids competing for the biggest bombie. We’re born, owned and brewed in Busselton, and want to create great beers to share with the world.
Pop-in and tell them WA Gravity Enduro sent you!

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I enter? Easy. Just click on the ‘ENTER NOW’ button located throughout 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 strive to keep our entry fees as affordable as possible. Entry fees vary based on your category and start from only $29 for the Under 13’s. Insurance selection and location can slightly vary the price, but we try to stay as consistent and affordable as possible.
Where is the course map? Gravity Enduro is about the excitement of racing a 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.
I missed registration! We can accept late registration online and on the day plus a $10 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. Practise is a part of the event. If you injury yourself or damage your bike beyond repair during practise, we cannot offer a refund or transfer as services have already been organised and paid for based on your attendance.
