Keen to set yourself a cycling challenge over the festive break? We have Black Sheep Classics Jerseys + annual subscriptions to Bicycling Australia up for grabs.

Started training for the 2023 Snowy Classic yet? If not, now is high time to start getting those kilometres and vertical metres into the legs.

The two courses of Jindabyne’s Snowy Classic are the 110km Challenge Classic with 1400 meters of climbing, and the 170km Maxi Classic with a whopping 2800 metres straight up!

To help prepare and motivate riders, the Bicycling Australia team have put together an Australia-wide Strava competition – the Snowy Classic Climbing Challenge.

Held over the festive break – a time when riders typically have more time and more reason to get out on the bike, this is your opportunity to get solid kilometres into the legs and potentially win a great prize.

To take part in the four week festive challenge simply join the Bicycling Australia Cycling Club on Strava, cover as many kilometres (and metres) as you can between Boxing Day and Sunday January 29, 2023, name at least one of your rides ‘Snowy Classic Climbing Challenge’ and climb, climb, climb.

For your efforts you’ll have the chance to win one of FOUR subscriptions to BA + a Black Sheep Classics jerseys for top Male and Female climber through the challenge.
