Spectators Information

Community Activities:

There is plenty to do in Dwellingup if you're not participating in the event and here is where you will find it.

This year the event organises have teamed up with the people of Dwellingup to get them involved and show us what Dwellingup has to offer.

Besides the already established activities/attractions of the town, the community will be adding some special activities to the D100 to show you the heart of Dwellingup. Some extra's that the community will be including are:

Market Stalls (Local arts & crafts plus other novelty stalls)
Fresh Morning Tea by the RSL
Log Chop Demonstration
Sausage Sizzle by the Dwellingup Primary School

As these activities and more are confirmed this information will be updated - so keep your eye on this page as we get closer to the event.

Spectator Points:

Note: The 100 km starts at 8.30 am and the 40km starts at 9.00 am. The fastest riders will average a bit over 20 km/h and the slowest will average about 11 km/h

Southern Loop

1. 400 M walk off River road where the Bibbulmun track crosses the road is the 10km mark of the event. (Awesome) This is “Big Bertha” one of the hardest hills in the event. A lot of people walked this hill last year. Riders will be here in under half an hour of the start.
2. Bobs Crossing is the next point of interest, especially if there is a little water crossing the bridge. If there is too much water like last year we won’t be able to cross here and will have to go around (Via Murray Bridge) expect riders at Bobs Crossing in @ 45 minutes from the start.
3. Murray Bridge near the DEC check point station. Riders may cross here twice depending on the water levels. If we have to bypass Bobs crossing, then riders cross here on the way and on the way back from the Murray Valley DH/XC tracks 1 hr 15 to 1 hr 30 after the start.
4. Back at the Football oval in Dwellingup at 2 hours after the start

Northern Loop (100 km riders only)

5. Turner Hill. This is the 53 (in) and 64 (out) km marks
6. Oakley dam. (Awesome) walk 400 M up the hill for fantastic views over to the ocean. Surprisingly, a lot of riders had to walk this hill as well last year. 3 to 4 hour mark from start time.
7. There is an awesome rutted DH (down hill) about 1.5 km (ride there) from where the Munda Biddi crosses Scarp road. It is actually part of the Munda Biddi trail. The road crossing is where the last check point and feed zone were last year. About the 75km mark
8. Marrinup camp Ground. The riders are almost finished and can looked pretty smashed coming out of this last section of single track. About the 87 (in) and 94 (out) km marks

NB; the winning time was about 4 hrs 40 min last year for the 104 kms, the slowest time was 8 hours 48 minutes.
