VERi volunteers were out doing a preliminary recce of the course today. It's looking good - a bit wet in places, but mostly puddles that can easily be avoided. I've been assured that there'll be no bogholes! It is slippery in places though, so good tyres are advisable. The course will be around 60 km or less, and will use some of the same trails as last year, but with a lot of new stuff thrown in.
Pre-entry closes in a weeks time on Monday 24 August. If you want to apply for a UVP through VERi, then you'll need to get it in by this Friday. Vic rec rego is ok for this event.
Accommodation is still available through the club, or organise your own at any of the local B&Bs etc. Easily accessible from Melbourne, Ballarat, Bendigo, etc so arriving on Sunday morning is also easy.
This was a great event last year, and this one should be too!
