Description

This book provides an entertaining and informative account of the first 120 years of the Melbourne to Warrnambool Cycling Classic. Founded in 1989, the classic is the world's second oldest bike race, and the Southern Hemisphere's longest one-day event. Its history is peppered with drama, intrigue, gallantry, humour, conquest and the Warrnambool Citizen's Road Race Committee's determined desire to overcome all organisational challenges.
