About riding in Australia
Australian rides range from coastal roads and rolling hills to long, remote stretches of open country. Seasons are reversed from the northern hemisphere, so the best riding is often spring and autumn, with intense heat in summer.
Estimated finish times
The route is about 485 miles. Here is the moving time at a steady average speed. It is a flat-ground baseline: climbing, wind, stops at aid stations and group riding all move the real number, so treat it as a starting range.
| Average speed | Moving time |
|---|---|
| 10 mph | 48h 28m |
| 12 mph | 40h 24m |
| 14 mph | 34h 37m |
| 16 mph | 30h 18m |
| 18 mph | 26h 56m |
Most recreational riders average 12–16 mph on rolling terrain in a group, and less on hilly routes.
