The Range Rumble - 91km

The Range Rumble is not for the faint-hearted—this is a seriously challenging ride that will test your fitness, stamina, and technical skills. Expect epic climbs, fast descents, creek crossings, and rough sections that will push you to the limit.


Starting from the showground, you'll ride through quiet town streets before heading north into Leeches Gully Road with its rolling hills and stunning views. The real adventure begins when you leave the bitumen behind and tackle the gravel roads of the Basket Swamp National Park, weaving through lush forests, crossing creeks, and navigating steep downhill sections that require caution.


As you climb through the Boonoo Boonoo National Park, enjoy breathtaking scenery and keep your eyes peeled for the rare Glossy Black Cockatoo. The ride continues with a series of technical challenges, including more creek crossings, rough and rutted roads, and fast gravel descents.


Caution is key on some of the more technical sections, but the payoff is worth it. With stunning landscapes, challenging trails, and fast downhill sections, this course will leave you feeling both exhausted and exhilarated.


The Range Rumble is for riders looking to push their limits. It’s a tough ride, but the incredible views and adrenaline-pumping descents make it a bucket-list experience for any gravel rider.
