Event Overview
Shifty Fifty Rd 6 – Gippy Shifty Fifty is a Big Hill Events cycling round delivered in partnership with the Gippsland MTB club, based at Blores Hill in Gippsland, Victoria. The event is scheduled for Sunday 20 September 2026 and offers three distance options: Shifty Smally (11.5km), Shifty Shorty (a 25km loop), and Shifty Fifty (50km). Entries remain available online until 9:45am on event morning, with racing starting from 10:00am.
What the Course Demands
The program spans a short 11.5km option through to 25km and 50km choices, with the 25km format described as a loop. Elevation gain is listed as TBC across all distances, so the exact climbing load should be treated as unknown until confirmed. With multiple categories and eBikes welcomed, the day is structured to accommodate different pacing approaches, but riders should expect sustained effort to be shaped mainly by distance selection.
Who This Event Suits Best
This event suits riders wanting a structured race-day experience with distinct distance options, from a shorter introductory ride through to a 50km main event. It can work well for newer participants looking for an accessible entry point, as well as experienced riders seeking competitive categories. Those who prefer to decide late will also benefit from the on-the-day online entry window and clear start-line schedule.
