The Stuart’s Well Gran Fondo is the first of Alice Springs Cycling Club's three glorious Gran Fondo rides that we hold each year.  It is a favourite for both those who want to aim for a PB and those that want a social ride with majestic views and a pretty awesome BBQ at the finish.  A bus and bike trailer will take you back to Alice (spaces are limited so please book). Families and friends are very welcome as long as they book (we like to cater for everyone) and have their own transport home. At just over 90k you need a reasonable level of fitness for this event, but a bus following the last riders will pick up anyone who is struggling.  There is a social category, who will all ride together for the distance.  You can also start this ride at the prison if you want it a bit shorter (be sure to let the organisers know).  Because it is not a race, you are able to enter on an AusCycling Lifestyle membership, which gives you third party insurance cover for peace of mind. Check out Lifestyle membership here https://www.auscycling.org.au/membership/lifestyle .  All riders will need to show proof of membership (download your membership to your phone wallet).
