Warrnambool City Council is pleased to partner with Cycling Victoria to present the 2015 Tour of the South West. The Tour of the South West fits well with the profile of our city, which has a strong and healthy sporting base. This event, now in its fourth year, is the second largest race in the Victorian road cycling series. Your participation further enhances the event’s reputation. Many hours of planning and organisation go into running the weekend. Our sincere thanks to the event sponsors, local businesses and the volunteers who offer their time to make the event run smoothly – without your assistance this event would not be possible. We trust you will enjoy your time in the spectacular Great Ocean Road Region and hope to see you again soon.
