40km Classic RRR: The quintessential Triple R experience. A fast-paced journey starting with wide-open rural gravel and fire trails before diving into the lush, technical rainforest canopy of Mowbray National Park and the legendary Bump Track.

70km Epic RRR: For the endurance rider. This course covers the full 40km Classic route but adds the rugged Black Mountain road and Twin Bridges Track - a technical, undulating loop featuring extra climbing, creek crossings, and remote hinterland trails.
