Melbourne to Canberra

Commencing in 2016, this ride has become "the ride" to add to your cycling resume - a six day epic including the challenge of climbing to Dead Horse Gap. Generally commencing around the first week of March each year, this ride leads into the Canberra to Dubbo ride, so you can finish in Canberra if you like, or take on the extra challenge of three more days and ride on to Dubbo.
