24 - 25 May - Bright Gravel Stage Race
In its second year, the event has moved to the 24th and 25th of May weekend and is now a 2-day stage race!
Starting and finishing from the centre of town, the course highlights some of the premium unsealed roads of the region across two great days of racing and riding.
On course, riders can expect fun live sites featuring food, hydration, music, and good vibes to keep morale high out on the road.
For those looking to race, there are six timed stages in total with four on Saturday stage and two stages on Sunday.
While the event welcomes all riders (including eMTBs), being Bright, you can expect a lot of climbing so be ready for a bit of a sting in the legs by the end!

Course refuelling stations
Six timed segments for those who like to race

Good vibes all weekend.
