Event CountdownThere are before the start of the 2012 Ned Kelly Challenge |
Welcome to the Kelly Country Classic website. Thank you all for your generous & contribution towards the Kelly Country Classic in 2011. Your support ensured the success of our event. Following in the footsteps of the legendary Kelly Gang, rides will start and finish in Glenrowan, with the choice of four routes designed to suit a range of rider abilities and fitness levels. Following in the footsteps of the legendary Kelly Gang who roamed the region in the 1880's cyclists will pedal past vineyards, farm gates and historic villages with strong links to the Kelly story. All rides will start and finish in Glenrowan, a town that resonates with the raw, bittersweet memory of Australia's most famous bushranger and his gang.We will continue with the "Ned Kelly Challenge", a testing 210km ride that leaves Glenrowan and heads over the Warby Ranges before joining the 150km ride route. If you're looking for a personal challenge this is definitely the ride for you. For those who wish to ride this as an Audax ride, the time allowed for the distance is up to 13.5 hours, average speed of 15kmh. On completion of this strenuous ride, participants will be issued with a limited edition commemorative t-shirt to wear with pride. The fantastic 150km "Dan Kelly Ride" will cover Kelly Country from Glenrowan to Winton, Lurg, Benalla East, Tatong, Molyhullah, Moyhu, Greta and back to Glenrowan. Still challenging, but not quite so arduous, riders can choose the 100km "Joe Byrne Jaunt" from Glenrowan to Lurg, Myrrhee, Moyhu and returning to Glenrowan. The 50km "Steve Hart Spree" option will take cyclists from Glenrowan to Greta, Moyhu and back to the town made famous by the Kelly Gang's Last Stand. |
