WARWICK BITB TRACK PREVIEW, 3KM OF ACTION
MXstore's Battle In The Bush 4-Hour MX Relay presented by Motorexaus takes place on Sunday, July 12 at Warwick MX Club.
WHAT TO EXPECT ON THE COURSE
The loop starts on the motocross track. After Turn 2, riders move onto a fire trail into Bush Section 1, then drop into a sandy creek for about 100 metres before returning to the MX track.
Next comes a roller section, followed by a U-turn back into the sandy creek for Bush Section 2. Riders need to choose their line carefully through this section.
Bush Section 3 is the standout stretch, with multiple lines weaving through trees. Those who read the terrain best will find the fastest route through.
The lap closes on the motocross track with a launch over the course's signature tabletop jump located near the spectator area. Riders then head to the finish line and into Pit Lane, where the timing transponder handovers and rider changeovers happen.
THE EVENT FORMAT
This is a 4-hour relay race. Teams round up their mates and take turns on hot laps. The course blends motocross, bush riding, sandy creek sections and strategic line choices.
Free camping and a bonfire with beers are available the night before for the whole crew.
