A reminder to get your nominations in by Wednesday night for the 2026 Stirling's Classic. 🐴

There will be 20km and 40km rides held on the Saturday and a 20km, 40km and 120km elevator held on the Sunday. The 120km elevator will offer riders a choice to retire at 85km with a successful completion.

The tracks are running over much of what will be used at the 2026 Tom Quilty in July, so it's a great chance to see what the TQ tracks will include.
