We would also like to thank Moreton Bay Regional Council for having us back again for the second year running – the Pumicestone Passage area makes for some good fun Raid racing! The event was really a challenge this time to bring […]

Well, that is a wrap on the 2020 Wildfire Raid. We had a great field of teams this year with 192 competitors, going well over our initial cap, and many of these were first time racers. I was pretty happy how the course came together, and felt confident that I would not have to backtrack again this year on my prediction that it would not be swept. Feedback is always […]
Not surprisingly, it has been very uncertain times in the event management sphere. I know were all itching to get back out and racing rogaines and adventure races. Obviously there is a lot of uncertainty around when this will be possible, however it’s always great to have a “Plan A” (and a B, C and D if you’re an adventure racer!), so below is a quick update on the changes […]

That is the wrap on the Wildfire Raid for 2019! The weather came to the party for everyone, with the forecast winds a definite no show leaving glass-like conditions on the lake in places for people to paddle about on. 6 hour teams all seemed to enjoy the views from Mt Joyce (how could you not!), while the trek heavy tactic proved a winner for the 3 hours. The dedicated […]
The Wildfire Raid is now run and done, and for an inaugural edition of the race, it was a massive success. Adopting the now familiar Raid multisport rogaine format with a few little twists, the 3 and 6 hour time options were perfect for new comers to the sport whilst still challenging some of Queensland’s fastest adventure racing teams. The course took in some fantastic single track riding in the […]
