20km Road Course Accessible to All Cyclists: Bring any kind of bike you have – everyone is welcome to join the ride towards triumph. To ensure a fair and safe competition, please note that electric bikes and kickstands are not permitted during the event.
Walkable 4km Run Course: Not in the mood for a sprint? No problem! The 4km run course offers a bit of a challenge with hills, but you can conquer it at your own pace – walk, jog, or run, it's all about your personal achievement.
Sponsored by local businesses, this event is a celebration of community spirit. Discover fundraising opportunities, connect with fellow participants, and feel the uplifting support of friends and family cheering you on at the finish line.
