The team with the lowest combined time will win the D100 Forces Challenge Perpetual Trophy.

Notes:

• All team members must work for the same organisation, however they do not need to work in the same department. eg. Team could be made up of Administration Staff, Field Officers or Management.

Individual participants within each team may, if they wish, complete the Dwellingup 100 Classic. To do so, those individuals will be required to pay a 'top up' fee (by completing the form at the bottom of this page). Individuals who do nominate to ride the 100km will be asked to start in the 100km start group (to allow maximum time to complete the full course) - the 40km split time will go toward the team time also.

• No categories for the D14, although you must be 8 years of age or older to ride it. The D14 is not a race therefore it will not be timed.
