The Bowral Classic event in October has been designed to cater for a broad range of cycling enthusiasts in all the shapes and sizes they come!
Centered around the historic township, the Bowral Classic will begin on the main street of Bowral and conclude in the Bowral Velodrome at Eridge Park. Riders might feel like they are arriving at the Roubaix Velodrome after battling the revered Paris-Roubaix’s cobblestones when they are welcomed to join in on a few laps of the recently refurbished track after the event.
Riders of this local modern day monument are encouraged to taste, see and do as much as they can whilst in the region.
With plenty on offer why not make it a weekend away with the family or a romantic retreat for two? There is plenty of room in Bowral to accommodate everyone’s needs.
Even the riders of a team who want to bunk down for the night after a course reconnaissance ride on the Saturday are welcomed with open arms.
A quaint bed and breakfast option might be what your looking for with The Chelsea Park B&B. It transports guests back in time to the 1930s and has been dubbed the “Hollywood Mansion in the Highlands”. Featuring delightfully restored rooms each boasting a unique theme from a dramatic Hollywood dresser to elegant Japanese-inspired furnishings, it would make for a memorable weekend deep in the lush woodland garden.
Or the Sebel Bowral Heritage Park apartments to sleep the whole family might be what you’re looking for. Bordered by the award-winning gardens and Bowral Golf Club, it features a pool and fitness area and is only a few minutes from the town center.
