Has anyone done the Terra Australis?

I'm thinking about trying the 3 day version of this race. Has anyone done it before and if so, are you able to provide any details as to how technical it is? I can probably make the distance but my technical skills aren't so crash hot (which is why I like enduro's). Any intel on this race would be greatly appreciated! :o) Thanks! See More

"I've got a bike seat with a large cutout from the same company. On the swing tag (which I suspect they used googletranslate to translate) it says you can put your penis, testicles, clitoris and labia in the cutout. That's why I bought…"

"You can actually go through the river. The horses from Forest park cross it all the time and you would come out about a k before the parkway bridge. I have never done it but it couldn't be any worse than the river crossing in Dirtworks/Convict…"

"I have been using 29er EVo snake skin RR. I got through the scott and the mont and all riding between on the same set up tubeless. I have had one puncture in the tread, which was fixed with a patch. Would highly recommend. The grip is…"

"I think side wall slashes were not uncommon over the weekend. My team suffered two - but they weren't snakeskins. They are cheaper on-line at around $50. Ifd you can wait a week to get them :o)"

"I did a side wall on one of the snakeskins ones of these at the Mont yesterday. They are very tough but with all tyres they are not bullet proof! I will be heading to my local bike shop this week to get a couple of replacements. Last time I got them…"

"But at least most of dirtworks is on a mountain... wasn't too bad. I loved the quick start and quick finish - I didn't like that hill.... The husky was the worst.... we rode some of that together blondie - until you had your little off and…"

"Excellent move by AROC. Glad to see it is still going ahead and with plenty of notice of the postponment. Lets hope the trails can be fixed, dried out and the bridge cleared (although it took the govt the best part of a year last time).…"

"Good point! Getting over the river could be interesting! I forgot about that...there was a pile of debris on the bike path on Saturday morning. That poor little concrete bridge will be un-recognisable under the pile of logs! "

"I agree Michael, I can't see how you could re-route, you need all sorts of agreements from land owners etc. And the next problem is that the Mont will be completely trashed if CP uses the tracks first. Majura will be an absolute…"
