Hux at Bux MAXXED is all about seeing who can descend the best on two wheels.
Only the downhills are timed, so you can pedal up at your own pace with your crew, then choose your track and rollout whenever you’re ready.
Make it a chilled day of mountain biking or push yourself like it’s the EWS. This is enduro-style racing with a laid-back vibe—no strict schedule, just good times.
Buxton is nestled in the heart of the stunning Yarra Ranges, this race will test your technical skills, endurance, and mental toughness as you navigate the flowy sections.
Oh and don’t forget eMTBs are welcome!

RACE FORMAT
You can tackle the downhills in any order, mix in warm-up laps, and ride at your own speed with six timed stages that you can ride as many times as you like in the 5-hour window. This is similar to Fox Superflow® Racing.
Timing opens on all stages at 9am and there’s no times recorded after 2pm.
