Roleystone
Enjoy exploring the hills, valleys, cul-de-sacs, bush tracks and reserves in Roleystone on your bike. This event is based in the residential areas, not in the bush areas that surround it. Contours will feature in your route choice.
Runners & e-bikes also welcome!
Fortuitous scheduling has resulted in the Roleystone Markets being held at nearby Cross Park on the same day from 10:00am to 3:00pm, so your post event refreshments will be readily available in considerable variety. The Markets will also result in part of the map being out-of-bounds and nearby streets will be busy with cars and pedestrians. Please be considerate of other road users.
This is a score event whereby you visit as many controls as possible during a two-hour period. MapRun6 will be used to record your visit to each control. The information flyer has information on using the app.
