National Capital Tour – A Weekend on Wheels – September 20 – 22

The weekend of 20 – 22 September sees Australia’s top domestic cyclists roll into Canberra as the Cycling Australia National Road Series comes to town. This is a great opportunity to watch the top riders in actions on roads that we all train on regularly. All details on the weekend’s event can be found here – http://nationalcapitaltour.com/

The Canberra Cycling Club has a race on the Saturday morning at Lookout Hill which is just down the road from the climb to Corin Forest. Why not come and have a race in the morning and cheer on the best riders on the domestic scene in the afternoon.
