Entry fees are kept minimal, ensuring that the total event cost, with the addition of AusCycling membership and/or Day License, aligns with typical entry fees for similar events.
Volunteers
As usual we need awesome helpers to run our events. This round will require track marshals. If you have some supporters coming along, want to get up-close to the racing, or just aren’t in the mood for riding this round, please contact us prior to the day.
As an added incentive (to just that warm fuzzy feeling for helping out !), volunteers that help out are entitled to claim one free race entry.
Please let us know if you are bringing a volunteer by email [email protected]
