On the day information.

Second Start area for the 20k ride is from the Brushgrove sporting ground Late registrations From 7:30am on the morning  and a number issued to attach to the front of your bike. Official star time 9:00 am

Cost: Entry $20.00 per rider or $50.00 a family.( all profits go to Rotary charities)

 

(On the line for the start-  2011 the start time is 8:30am) It's not a race but for the first Tour some of the riders wanted to see how fast a time they went around the Island ( Best for 2008 1hr:08min).

The more sedate riders were a bit more casual enjoying a morning ride, weather starting from the official start at McFarlane bridge for the 40k loop or from Brushgrove 20k, it didn't matter where you started all of the riders agreed it was a great morning, the last rider coming in at 10:45am.
