Mansfield Mt Buller Cycling Club is known for its friendly and inclusive atmosphere. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned cyclist, there is a place for you in the club. The club welcomes riders of all ages and abilities, from casual riders to competitive racers.
One of the highlights of the club is its road racing events. Held on Thursday evenings during the summer months (and less often in winter), these races cover a distance of 20 to 30 kilometres. The races are usually in a handicap format, allowing riders of different skill levels to compete together. This creates a supportive and encouraging environment for everyone to improve their cycling skills.
In addition to road racing, the club also organises the Mansfield Tour, a Victorian Road Series event held in March each year. This event attracts cyclists from all over the state and is a major highlight on the club's calendar.
For those who prefer off-road cycling, Mansfield Mt Buller Cycling Club also has a strong mountain biking community. The club contributes to the development and maintenance of local tracks and trails, ensuring that there are plenty of options for mountain bikers to explore. Tuesday evening "Dirt Crits” races are held at Riflebutts Reserve, providing a fun and exciting racing experience for mountain bikers of all levels.
In addition to races, the club also organises informal training rides for both road and mountain biking. These rides are a great way to improve fitness and skills in a friendly and supportive environment.
To foster a sense of camaraderie and community, the club also holds social events throughout the year. Thursday night road races in the summer conclude with dinner at The Mansfield Hotel, a club sponsor. This provides an opportunity for members to socialise and connect with fellow cyclists.
If you are interested in joining Mansfield Mt Buller Cycling Club, membership is open to all. The club offers a range of membership options to suit different needs. Whether you are looking to race competitively or simply enjoy leisurely rides, you will find a welcoming and supportive community at Mansfield Mt Buller Cycling Club.
