The highly anticipated Snowy Classic Cycling Gran Fondo is back, returning to the Snowy Mountains for the third year on Saturday, 23 March 2024.
Early Bird registrations are now officially open, giving cycling enthusiasts the opportunity to secure their spot at a heavily discounted rate.
Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Snowy Mountains, the Snowy Classic offers riders the chance to explore the region via two challenging courses on FULLY CLOSED ROADS.
For the seasoned cyclist there is the 170km Maxi Classic, a course filled with steep ascents and thrilling descents through the heart of the alpine region. The 110km Challenge Classic offers a similar route, without the added kicker of the Perisher Valley climb. Both courses start and finish in Jindabyne, and pass through the picturesque towns of Beloka, Berridale and Dalgety.
The Snowy Classic is offering a refreshing approach to event fundraising with individual riders and teams raising money for whichever charity they wish to support. Since the inaugural Bowral Classic event in 2016, The Classics event series has raised over half a million dollars for charities across Australia.
Not only does the Snowy Classic promise an unforgettable experience for participants, but it also extends its reach to benefits in the local community. Cyclists and their families from across the country descend to the region which brings in close to $1.5M to the local tourism economy each year.
Locals are encouraged to get involved with the event through either registering for the ride and enjoying the on-course support, or volunteering over the weekend. Head to www.snowyclassic.com.au for more information.
Snowy Monaro Regional Council Mayor Narelle Davis says “The Snowy Classic ride showcases the beautiful Snowy Mountains and Monaro Region. The Snowy Monaro community looks forward to this event each year.”
The Snowy Classic is proudly supported by the NSW Government through its tourism and major events agency, Destination NSW.
