Three words that our team hold at the heart of our organisation are the foundations to develop an epic event team.

The essence of the team we develop to manage a mountain bike race is to be 100% inclusive, we work alongside all stakeholders to ensure we have considered all of the potential risks and threats of a race and the place. That is not primarily focused on competitors; we understand that there are a number of affected parties when organising events, so it's crucial that these parties are in the planning rooms from day 1. We also know that mountain bike races can sometimes damage trails, and we will build into our budget a trail repair fund to ensure the trails are left as we found them and/or in some cases, better.
2018 -2023 Intrinsic Event team was the event team and Event Director for the Giant 2W Gravity Enduro Southern Hemisphere’s largest enduro race, which is a 3-race series. In year one we sold out the series for the first time ever and year two the entire season sold out in four days 1650 entries, 2021/22 /23season has already reached 1900 entries, which is now the biggest enduro mountain bike race series in the world.
2019/20 season the Giant 2W hosted a Enduro World Series Qualifier race with great success. 2019 we were asked to manage the Giant Toa Enduro part of the Crankworx Festival (largest mountain bike festival in the world). This race was a Continental Series Race which is a Tier 2 Enduro World Series race; this was a huge success.
