The Jailbreak Ride

The Jailbreak Ride at the Prison Break Market invites riders of all fitness levels to hit the trails on the shortest day of the year.

Join for an epic mountain bike adventure with themed outfits whether that be the classic stripes or going full undercover, wild prizes, and a great cause. This thrilling mountain bike ride will "Break" riders out prison, to the freedom of the trails. This is the ultimate event for you to join up with mates and enjoy a morning out on the bike, "escaping" life's challenges.

Riders can opt for a quick getaway (10km ride), a steady escape (20km ride), or the ultimate breakout challenge (40km ride). The best-dressed escapees, the most daring fugitives, and the most committed convicts will be awarded. Plus, expect thrilling giveaways and unexpected “prison checkpoints” along the way.

First finishers get medals, though late entries are not eligible. The event is held in support of Oliver’s Village Charity.
