One of DORC’s fiestiest events of the year is being held at Charles Darwin National Park on Sunday 19th May. Race start is located just inside the main gate at the trail head.
If you haven’t raced with DORC yet, it’s a lot of fun. Do as many or as few laps as you wish – ride in pairs or go it alone. You don’t have to ride for the whole two hours. Check out our race details page or ask some of our other members at a social ride to give you an idea what our events are about. Our focus is on participation and fun. Head over to the DORC event calendar for the location and dates of other events and activities throughout the year.

Volunteers
We all know that many hands make light work and we would love some people, who aren’t racing, to jump in and give us a hand. Some of the jobs include setting up (from 6.00am), registration, timing, cooking the bbq and packing up. Call or text Damien Loller on 0419 928 990 for more info.
