Recommendations & Rules - spectators
- The best way to watch the race is to be part of it - as a Lead or Follow car. Let yourself be known at registration if you want to volunteer.
- Do not follow the races. Anyone wishing to travel on the roads must do so in the opposite direction (clockwise) to which the riders are racing.
- Anyone wishing to spectate on the Skyline hill-climb must leave Eildon prior to 9.45am.
- Any people connected to the race who flaunt these rules may jeopardise awards and prizes for their associated competitor(s) as a result of this indiscretion. We realise it's exciting to watch a bike-race - but safety is paramount.
- Suggested vantage points for spectating are the Golden Trout round-a-bout, Eildon (cnr Centre Rd/Goulburn Valley Hwy); Snobs Creek Hotel Deck, GVHwy; Skyline Terrace (approx 5.5km up the climb); Skyline KOM (top of Skyline Road); Finishline (Riverside Drive, Eildon).
- Race winners are scheduled to finish at approximately 11.20 (JW15/J13), 11.30 (WomB/ JM15/JW17), midday (WomA/ MensC), 12.15pm (MensD/ JM17), 12.20pm (MensA/ MensB).
