Discover mountain bike orienteering at a Bike-O 75 Series event, ideal as an introduction to MTBO or for those wishing to enjoy a weekend bike ride of discovery.
The first event is at Silvan on Saturday 31 January, hosted by Dandenong Ranges Orienteering Club,
Riders have up to 75 minutes to visit as many controls on the supplied colour map as you can. You choose which ones to visit and which way to get there and back. Each control is worth 20 points. 10 points penalty per minute for those longer than 75 minutes.
Please make sure you read the 2026 Bike-O 75 Information Flyer before entering, so that you know what to expect at the events.
The MapRun smartphone/watch app will be used to record control locations. Bring your smartphone or bluetooth-enabled Garmin watch. Find out more about MapRun. Make sure you download the latest version of MapRun (for phones) or MapRunG (for compatible watches), before you arrive.
You’ll also need to check in via QR code, at each event. Use your phone’s camera or QR code reader app, to provide your name and contact phone number.
Entries for the three Bike-O 75 events this summer are open now on Eventor. Generally riders enter individually, but this summer we are encouraging riders who may like to ride in a group with a special entry offer – one rider enter online and any extra riders can purchase a map on the day for $5.
Also, there is a ‘Bring a friend’ two for one deal for a new rider introduced by a past rider – the past rider enters through Eventor and the new rider can Enter On the Day. Line up friends and family to join you for some terrific, low key, fun and social Bike-O events.
