The Oak Valley Grand Prix brings single-tracks, night racing and for the adventurous...team spirit. This year we offer 2 different options. You could either choose the MTB option to ride as many 12km laps as you can in 24 hours or choose the Trail Run option to run as many 5km laps as you can in 24 hours. 

Take advantage of the cooler weather in April to help you race against the clock. Make it a friends and family affair with the 24 hour race village with plenty of food and drinks to keep you going, a charging station for those much needed lights and fantastic lucky draw prizes to keep awake for. 

Only pre-entries will be allowed, so get your team together for this fun event on the calendar.
