No Racing or large pelotons

The Come to Life Cycle Classic is a non competitive mass participation ride; therefore there must be no racing. Riders should not ride in large pelotons (no pelotons larger than 20 are permitted on open roads). If two pelotons are riding together, they should allow approximately 0.5km between.

Cut-off time

The course will be serviced by support staff from 8.30am until 1pm. For the safety of cyclists and volunteers a cut-off time will be imposed at Dunnstown at 1pm. Cyclists should consider this cut-off time and their cycling fitness levels when entering The Classic. Cyclists who arrive at Dunnstown after 1pm will be able to continue along the course but there will not be marshals after this time.

Refund Policy

Please note that requests for refunds must be received before 4 February 2011. Cancellations will not be accepted after this date. A $10 fee will be deducted from the entry fee to cover administration and handling costs. Notification for cancelling an entry must be received in writing or by email.
