Event photos by Craig of RCPix to view and purchase are linked here.
The 2023 event was run as Graded Qld State Championships as a one-off: Riders who finished in the top three (3) of the following categories were recognised as the 2023 Queensland Graded State medalist.
Men's A - Men's B - Men's C - Men's Masters A - Men's Masters B - Men's Masters C - Men's Masters D
Women's A - Women's B - Women's C - Women's D
As the 2023 event was run as the Queensland State Road Championships, prizes were State Championship medals for placing first, second or third in each grade rather than prize money or prize jersey. King / Queen of the Mountain winners in each grade received a trophy.
If you need post race transport from Warwick finish village back to Gatton to collect your car, we have you covered with mini bus and bike trailer transport. Don't ride back! Details and booking in this link. BOOKINGS REOPENED, WE HAVE MORE TRANSPORT SPOTS
Last year the event was extended by 8km (105km) due to the change in the race route to take the competitors off the New England Highway as much as possible. This is at the request of the Police who have also directed that only official race vehicles (Commissaires, lead, spares vehicles and First Aid) travel with each group along this section. This is a safety matter as the country roads are very narrow, one lane roads.
Riders, could you please inform your own support vehicle drivers of this directive from the Police.
105km Gatton to Warwick
