Well . . . . The time is now to unleash word on the new event in town. An event so awe inspiring that it is guaranteed to excite the most unexcitable person in the most excitable way.

The Cranky Penguin Mountain Bike Marathon!

Taking place in the quiet seaside town of Penguin on the North West coast of Tasmania, The Cranky Penguin will challenge riders to make their way from the ocean, into the heart of the Dial Range, and back to civilization in what is Tasmania's only one day mountain bike marathon.

Riders can choose between two options, the full, 70 km Cranky Penguin, or the 40 km Not-So-Cranky Penguin. With more than 2000 metres elevation gain over the 70 km marathon course, make no mistake, this event is not for the faint hearted.

Why not make a weekend of it and participate in a time trial around the ridiculously fun Penguin MTB Park? Each rider will be set off individually and their time recorded. The 10 fastest riders will then complete another run in an attempt to take the title. Just like a DH race but with XC style.

Can you tame the Cranky Penguin?
