Sydney City Council have built a lovely new path from the Rotunda down to the Harbour Bridge Cycleway just for our event. Despite a few setbacks with the weather an all the rest it is finished, this will have shaved approx. 100m off the route….
The more Eagle eyed among you may notice that there is a hoarding around the Rotunda, but fear not, Sydney City has planned around us (and perhaps the odd wedding photograph)

Hey Garth,
How many people tend to start from Hornsby? And what time?
Having started from the City every year since the rides inception, I think I’d rather give the city a skip this year. I want to get a feel as to how common that is.
I’ve started at Baulkham Hills for the last 2 years, and will do the same this year. There were 3 of us last year, and might be 3 or more this year.
I meet up with the main route at Berowra Station after going through Berowra gorge.
Mind posting a map and starting time/ location? that sounds like a serious contender for me.
