Cycle event rolls into Margaret River
What: Margaret River Community Challenge
When: Saturday, 10 March 2012
Where: Starts and finishes at Xandau Winery, Boodjidup Road, Margaret River
Bicycling Western Australia heads to the South West to stage the Margaret River Community Challenge on Saturday, 10 March 2012. Commencing at Xanadu Winery, this community cycling event offers
something for all levels of riders from a family-friendly 25km ride up to a more intense 110km challenge.
Following the recent fire devastation, BWA wants to help the community by presenting an event that encourages visitors to return to the region and show that Margaret River is back and ‘open for business.’ It also gives our South West supporters a chance to participate in a great ride closer to home.
“As a community based organisation, BWA is thrilled to stage an event with a genuine community focus,” CEO Jeremey Murray says.
“We are expecting around 350 riders and their families to descend on the region and we are encouraging all of them to make a real weekend of it by staying over and exploring all the region has to offer.”
Local riders are strongly encouraged to get involved with a special discounted registration fee for South West residents.
The Details
Commencing and finishing in the picturesque grounds of Xanadu Winery, the three available distances will cater for all riders including a 25km family ride, 60km cycle and a 110km challenge.
Following the event, a lunch will be served to all riders, giving them plenty of opportunity to share their experiences with other riders during the presentation of great prizes and awards.
Online registrations are now open and full details are available at www.bwa.org.au
