Australia's Commonwealth Games mountain bike riders will have their final Australian race at Mt Buller this weekend (February 18 and 19) in the fourth and final race in the National Series. Five members of the Australian Cross Country team will line up on Saturday in one of the highest quality cross country fields to grace the slopes. The Commonwealth Games team will use the tough Mt Buller circuit as preparation for the Oceania Championships in Rotorua on March 3 - 5.
