The event is a social but challenging ride through the northern countryside of Tasmania on Sunday 24 March 2019 to raise money for the New Horizons Club Inc, which provides sporting and recreational opportunities for people with disabilities and Youngtown Rotary Club projects – Disaster Aid Australia Survival Box and the Asthma Foundation.

Volunteers from New Horizons Club and Rotary are once again organising the 9th Annual Western Tiers Cycle Challenge. The event has grown steadily, with the 2012 Challenge seeing a record number of entrants, with all entry monies going directly to both charities.

Clare Classic to return in April 2020!

Following the success of the inaugural Clare Classic in April 2018, we are proud to announce that we will be returning to the stunning Clare Valley region in April 2020.

The community and local council support has been tremendous. We are very excited about returning to this world class region, and the cycling community will be marking this unique event in the calendar!

We feel this event will be better suited to being bi-annual, ensuring riders will look forward to returning for all the benefits that this region delivers. This region is simply world class for cyclists. It delivers everything you could want…stunning landscape, pristine roads and local community support. We are thrilled about returning for the Clare Classic in 2020!
