The Event

A RIDE YOU'LL NEVER FORGET

19.10.2025

Starting and finishing in Lorne it’s a challenging yet rewarding course on completely closed roads along Australia’s most breathtaking coastline.

The course kicks things off with an uphill straight out of Lorne. There’s another climb just after the halfway mark, followed by a well-earned descent onto the namesake coastal road where you’re rewarded with stunning views for the last 40km.
