The Bass Coast Cycle Challenge Saturday November 5

After an absence of two years due to covid-19, The Bass Coast Cycle Challenge was back in action, over 500 riders attended in what is one of Gippsland’s major cycling events.

It was also fantastic to have the man who started it all over 10 years ago back at the helm and in charge of the event in Gavin Slavin, ably assisted by the marketing guru Katie Hodge and the hard working committee of the Bass Coast Cycling Challenge and the volunteers that gave up their time to assist the riders along the course, it truly is a team effort.

Once again Gippsland Lifestyle sponsored the achievers in the over 60 category where a man and a woman is selected for taking part in the event, not for winning but for participating.

Winners: Anne Semken and Angus Hume
