The 2024 Course
THE 2 DAY RIDE COVERED A SPECTACULAR 220KM LOOPING COURSE - STARTING FROM BARKER COLLEGE IN HORNSBY HEADING OUT TO WISEMANS FERRY FOR AN OVERNIGHT STAY AND RETURNING TO HORNSBY
DAY 1
Barker College to Wisemans Ferry
127km | 1829m Elevation
Day 1 took the riders along a scenic route following the Old Pacific Highway through Berowra, Brooklyn and Mount White before stopping for a much-deserved coffee break at Peats Ridge. With caffeine in the system, riders headed towards Lower Mangrove before winding their way along the beautiful Hawkesbury River to Wisemans Ferry. After checking into the Retreat at Wisemans, the fun continued with a late lunch followed by a lawn bowls session. Day 1 rounded off with a hosted dinner at the local bowling club.
DAY 2
Wisemans Ferry to Hornsby
95km | 1458m Elevation
The Day 2 course had the riders leave their riverside haven of Wisemans Ferry and ride along the stunning Hawkesbury River. From Sackville they would head east for morning tea. After the break it was onwards to Maroota, before heading south to a well earned stop at Glenorie Bakery for a delicious lunch. Then it was on towards Berowra Waters for a ferry ride across the river before a final climb out of the valley and a leisurely ride back to our silver partner BMW in Hornsby for the finish line celebration with family and friends.
