After the rain and mud of the 2010 event, the start line was abuzz with the expectation of some great trails in perfect conditions. The riders were not disappointed! As wave after wave dove into the Kowen forest, the leaders emerged from the other side and headed for the famous Majura Pines. Dylan Cooper was off the front and took the KOM points on Hackett Hill. He maintained the lead until the untimed section where he sat up and took full advantage of the 45min allowed to complete this section. James Downing went past and was first across the line but Cooper had used the rest to recover his energy and power home over Mt Stromlo to take the victory by three minutes from Peter Hatton and Ben Mather.

Jenny Fay was a dominate victor in the women’s class, leading from start to finish in a polished performance. Her winning margin was an impressive 38 minutes. Sue Thompson, a veteran, was the next female home and Emma lovelock rounded out the overall podium. Vanina Vergoz and Beth Thompson were the second and third female elites.
