Round 2 of the modified series went down on the weekend in stellar weather conditions at Toowoomba. There was no shortage of dust and rocks as usual at Toowoomba, but the pleasant day time temperature certainly made the leg burning 23km course a fraction easier. As usual the Toowoomba round proved a physical affair and there were no shortages of challenges for the riders.

A total of 151 riders attended with 86 junior riders (U19 and below) making the commitment to the mammoth course. The riders would have to undertake the full climb of the range on two occasions to make it to the stages with many smaller climbs in between. A mega Queen’s stage had riders descending for approximately 6 minutes at pace as they headed down Danomite – Anonymous – Hot Rod and into the bottom of Frenzy. There was approximately 1000m of elevation, no shortage of technical features, plenty of pedaling and a whole heap of dust to contend with. As usual Toowoomba delivered a challenging round of the Queensland Enduro Series.
