Pony Express Barwon Downs October 27th 2019
Welcome to Otway Enduro Club’s second Pony Express for 2019. The track will be a challenging enjoyable mix of hilly terrain, enduro-cross and single trail through blue gum plantation. If you competed in our Pony Express in April then the track will nearly be identical with a few extra obstacles added to the enduro-cross section. For the better riders each lap will take about 30 to 35 minutes.
This is an AMA Event, therefore you will require an AMA Competitive Licence to race. You can obtain a licence by clicking on the AMA logo below or one of the orange button towards the bottom of this page.
