James Williamson Enduro Challenge

This MTB event is held in memory of James Williamson, the 2008 World and 2006 Australian 24 Hour MTB champion. This is an annual event held each March, at Wingello in the Southern Highlands of NSW. James passed away on March 23rd 2010 while he was participating in the Cape Epic Mountain Bike Race in South Africa. James came from the Southern Highlands of NSW before moving to Canberra, and knew the trails of both areas well and was a respected rider, internationally and of Southern Highlands Cycle Club and Canberra Off Road Cyclists.

The James Williamson Enduro Challenge is intended to be a ride for those who love mountain biking, and a race for those who love to ride hard.

The format for the 2013 race will be similar to 2012, with 13KM, 25KM, 50KM & 75KM loops to race. There will be minor changes made to the format, (eg start procedure), and this year, we have added Super Master categories to 50KM & 75KM categories, for all those young riders on the other side of 50.
