Location
Yellomundee RP is right on the change of street names between Hawkesbury Rd and Springwood Rd. Located on the suburb border of Yarramundi and Hawkesbury Heights.
If Travelling from the East, Turn off Castlereagh Rd onto Springwood Road.
Keep and eye out for Shaws Creek, Yellomundee RP is the second driveway on the left roughly 100m up the steep hill from Shaws Creek.
If Travelling from the West, Turn Off Great Western Highway onto Hawkesbury Rd. After passing the Hawkesbury Lookout you will descend down the mountain through some tight turns. Nearing the Bottom when the road straightens out, Yellomundee RP is just on the right with a large open area before the gate.

About the Race
Rather than racing by age group, the kids can choose one of three grades. A, B or C.
As a guideline for grading, WSMTB recommends.
U13’s – C Grade
U15’s – B Grade
U19’s – A Grade
This is just a rough guide and the kids can choose any grade they feel comfortable with.
To put some minds at ease. Don’t think of the series as an Elite Rep Level competition, but one big club event.
All kids are encouraged to enter for fun from across NSW.
There are no maximum or minimum races that must be entered.
The series is spread across NSW with the final round taking place in Wollongong.
