Format

The Colts Raid will adopt a scatter course format. Teams will race across multiple stages of mountain biking, kayaking and trekking aiming to collect as many check points as possible in a 3 hour time period. This format of racing makes the event accessible to all level of competitors.

Mentor Program

Mentors will be a point of contact for youth teams in the lead up to the race and will work with Cubs teams during the event.
