Quad Crown - The Big O
Event location
Description
Organiser: Quad Crown MTB Events
The newest event in the 2024 Quad Crown Series will be run out of the historical gold mining town of Omeo, located on Victoria’s famous Great Alpine Road. Previously this region has been better known for epic road rides and back gravel grinds, but a brand new XC and Gravity trail build project undertaken by Common Ground Trails is about to change all that!
The nickname for this event was easy. “The Big O” is appropriate given the town name but also for the delight that we know this new collection of trails will bring to the riders.
