Hi Everyone,
Our General Manager John Kelly is taking part in the Chain Reaction 2022 Brisbane 7 Day Challenge.
Course Description
This year’s challenge will start in the vibrant hub of Launceston. Greenfields and country lanes will greet the peloton on Day 1 on their prologue, taking in the gorgeous Tamar Valley. On Day 2, the bunch will tackle local cycling legend Ritchie Porte’s gruelling training loop. Then it is onto the Devonport on Day 3, travelling through many charming townships and farming communities. From here, it is onto Tasmania’s picture-perfect highlands to arrive at Tarraleah for the evening of Day 4. Day 5 will deliver diverse and dramatic landscapes as the peloton cycles through to Hobart. A short ferry ride to beautiful Bruny Island awaits the bunch on Day 6, renowned for its stunning views at the Neck. Spectacular views are the reward on Day 7 as the peloton climb Mount Wellington.
