We do everything we can to ensure everybody has support and completes their race. We are still pending final approvals from Council, so we do not have the exact curfew times yet – but our planning takes into account all the previous athlete times on the course over recent races to ensure everyone finishes (particularly the cycle as it relates to road closures).
We do offer a cash prize for first, second and third Open Male and Women. This is commensurate with the field, so for more information please get in touch with our team on 1300 28 29 49.
