Sign On in Grafton

Sign on is only available on Friday from 4pm to 8pm. At the Memorial Park in Prince St (opp Crown Hotel). The event has grown over the past few years and with the expectation of large numbers and a tight time schedule and limited volunteers it is too difficult to sign cyclists on on the Saturday morning.  If you are having difficulties getting to sign on on Friday evening.  Please email info@inverellcyclentri.org.au to apply for privledge sign on.

Neutral Water Stations

Neutral Water Stations are different to normal feed zones.

A neutral water station is a section of road where we will have staff that will hand out water bottles to as many cyclists as possible.  It is your responsibility to get a bottle if you need one.  You are not required to stop but to slow as you would in a feed zone.

Your handler is not allowed hand out bottles.

The Water Moto

This is a motorbike that will travel back and forth between the neutral water stations on the mountian to offer cyclists water. They are handed to you from the moving motorbike.
