Organised eventsWHAT IS IT
In 2007 we launched a new marathon MTB event in Woodend Victoria, the BMC and in two short years, it became one of the premier marathon events in Victoria. For 2010 it will be re-branded, and both events will now fall under the "Dirt Works 100k Classic" banner and will be titled accordingly.
With assistance from the Wombat Mountain Bike Club, the Dirt Works 100km Classic - VIC is one of the most exciting MTB marathon events in Australia! The event is staged from the picturesque Cammeray Waters at Woodend in Victoria, only one hour’s drive from central Melbourne and 40 minutes from the airport.
