The Variety Cycle 2015
Racing is good, but racing for charity is better
Pump up your tyres and clip into your pedals, The Variety Cycle 2015 is gearing up for a lycra clad land lover’s alternative to the famed Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race; an epic 15 day cycling adventure from Sydney to Hobart, via Melbourne! This feel good physical challenge to raise funds for Aussie kids in need is Australia’s most ‘spoketacular’ charity cycle, taking in an iconic and breathtaking cycle route starting in Sydney on Saturday 28 February and finishing in Hobart on Sunday 15 March 2015.
Following the success of The Variety Cycle 2014, this life-changing adventure will see a philanthropic peloton saddling up to travel through some of Australia’s most iconic cycling routes and landscapes en route to their final destination, the striking seaport of Hobart, Tasmania.
For cycling novices, weekend warriors, elite athletes and recreational bicyclists alike there are options for everyone. Choices range from the full 15 day Sydney to Hobart cycle, an eight day Sydney to Melbourne or seven day Melbourne to Hobart option for the fabulously fit through to the shorter two day cycles (Sydney into Goulburn, Wangaratta into Melbourne, Devonport into Launceston which will incorporate the spectacular Cradle Mountain or Swansea into Hobart). There’s even a one day cycle fromSydney to Nowra! With a variety of options to choose from, this inspirational fundraiser is equipped to get new and experienced riders pedaling together for the greater good.
What makes this ride even better? It’s fully supported with training and preparation advice beforehand, all food and accommodation taken care of, as well as bike mechanics, medical teams, support vehicles front and back and much more, so you can just focus on your cycling, and let The Variety Cycle team take care of everything else.
More than just a bike ride, The Variety Cycle is a bighearted quest to improve the lives of Aussie children in need, across some of the most remote regional communities of our country, while giving participants a unique experience. Riders engage with communities and schools along the way, delivering much needed equipment and resources. With an overall fundraising goal of $1 million, donations are funded through the cyclists’ remarkable fundraising efforts combined with the generosity of our event sponsors.
