NATIONAL XCO SERIES
The National Series is back with the 2026 AusCycling Mountain Bike National Series - XCO Rounds.
After severe flooding destroyed the La Larr Ba Gauwa Mountain Bike Park in 2022, we’re thrilled to welcome racers and spectators back to the beautifully restored park for a weekend filled with fun, laughter, and—of course—racing!
Hosted by the Bendigo Mountain Bike Club, this event will showcase a hand-picked selection of the park’s signature trails.
Riders can look forward to stunning views, distinctive rock features, rewarding climbs, rocky technical sections, and fast, flowy descents that capture the true spirit of La Larr Ba Gauwa.
The park is back—and we can’t wait to celebrate its return with you with an XCO double header of racing. See you on the trails!
