Mt Buller - All you need to know
- Thread starter Duff_Man
- Start date
Have been to both Thredbo and Mt Buller recently, much preferred Buller. However, to be fair on Thredbo, it did snow which made it less enjoyable.
Agree about the comments with the service at the local joints. We all ordered the days' special "Roast Pork with Apple sauce". Out came roast beef, due to extreme hunger of waiting so long for food, we ate it but commented to the manager that it was the most interesting roast pork we had in a while. He gave a free drink but sure grumbled about it.
Abom is great but yeah, watch out for the Xc riders stopping in the middle of the track. Would have loved to of had more time to do more of International, I personally needed to work up more courage for it. Guess we'll have to head back down there.....

this post is a great help very detailed thanks dude it helped alot was planning on making a trip there this helped alot 
sorry mate but that is the only track that will be open for the race weekend. It has been discused to use the two tracks but it was later taken into consideration the extra work that would be required. Twice as many marshals and twice as much man hours to get the tracks operational with very little help. More help more races, go figure. I would say that you should still try and race mate, it is the only way to get your skills up and become a better rider. there is no shame in getting out there, giving it your all and having fun. People want give you attitude if you dont have the ability, and lets face it, we all have to start somewhere, so dont be put off because the track is out of your ability. if you dont feel up to racing then you should come up for the weekend and support the riders.
Hope to see as many ppl up there as possible on the weekend, as it should be a good weekend for all. gtg, bunting the track in the morning.
if anyone wants any info just pm me.

Bit late on the reply, but I am pumped for a trip to Mt Buller. Can't wait. I think it is great that Australia is following suit with the rest of the world and putting the Ski Resorts to use year round. I mean Australia must have one of the shortest ski seasons around and to use it for other activites (particularly MTB) come summer that is awesome...

What is the XC track like at Buller????
I can't find any info from the links on the MTBA Nationals site. Hoping there is info closer to the event.

Why aren't they open already Thredbo has been open for over a month!!!! And Thredbo still has snow!!! (and it keeps falling!!!)
That is a serious question, not just bagging Buller or anything like that.
Should I ask about the XC track on the XC forum???
