Sam Maffett, General Manager from race organisers Rapid Ascent said he was excited to announce entries are now open to the seventh edition of X-Adventure Dunsborough. “The landscape around Dunsborough is perfect for the X-Adventure races, the water is a beautiful turquoise, the granite coastline provides superb trail running and some of WAs best mountain biking is right on the door step,” Maffett said. “Athletes of all abilities are welcome. Some of Australias fastest off-road racers will be up-front but the race atmosphere is very inclusive and encouraging of all athletes, especially with the popular teams categories meaning people need only do one leg to still be involved.” Entries to the 2019 X-Adventure Dunsborough are now open online at Xadventure.com.au
