IMPORTANT UPDATE: WEST MACS CRUISE CHANGE OF ROUTE. ENTRIES DUE MONDAY
Due to popular demand, the West Macs Cruise is now two days instead of three!
People are telling us that they are worried they not fit enough for three days riding, or are just having trouble carving out three days from family obligations.
So we have decided to cut it in half - but have twice as much fun! (and don't forget that one day options are still available)
The first day is the same: Alice Springs to Ormiston Gorge. At 125k this is the longest - but you will be surprised at how achievable it is, with regular breaks and plenty of food stops along the way. And Day 2 is a mere 56k to Tylers Pass for an early lunch. The vehicles will join us there and after lunch we head home.
So do join us - members and friends of the Alice Springs Cycling Club - on this extraordinary two days of supported, fully catered road cycling through stunning desert country.
Dates: Saturday April 30 – Sunday May 1
Accommodation: Camping in your own tent or swag at Ormiston Gorge.
The route:
Day 1: Alice Springs to Ormiston Gorge Campground - 135k
Day 2: Ormiston to Tylers Pass - 56k
If you have never ridden over 100k in a day, this is your chance! This is a fully supported group ride with a tail vehicle if you need a break and a tucker van for the frequent breaks.
Options for joining us for a single day ride and camp are also available.
All riders are expected to be able to ride safely in a peloton. All riders must also attend a pre-race safety briefing and get-to-know-you BBQ on Thursday evening 28 April, 6.00pm.
And… we still need volunteers! Drivers of support vehicles and general assistants are needed – free participation and lots of good food on offer!
